About the Book
The Pink Nana is a story about a little girl by the name of Little Pickles and her love for her best companion, her dog Clumpy. She also loves her Pink Nana and never goes anywhere without it. Although Clumpy does everything to please Little Pickles, he is not willing to wear a pink scarf around his neck when he takes her to pre-school in the morning. After spending way too much time in the park in the morning, he changes his mind, scampers home to find Little Pickles left without him but dropped the Pink Nana on the steps. Feeling sad, he gathers up the Pink Nana and heads off to school. Professor Skida Marooch Madooch comes by on his bicycle, ties the pink scarf around Clumpy’s neck, and they rush before the school bells ring to give Little Pickles her Pink Nana. It doesn’t matter anymore that Clumpy is embarrassed because of the pink scarf; he just wants to make Little Pickles happy again. Her face lights up when they arrive, all is forgiven, and they both realize how much they love each other forever and ever.
