Book excerpt: Readers can watch Pinkalicious and Peterrific on the funtastic PBS Kids TV series Pinkalicious & Peterrific! #1 New York Times bestselling author Victoria Kann is back with a new I Can Read story featuring Pinkalicious! When Pinkalicious goes on a class trip to the birdhouse, she can't wait to see all the different birds—especially the rare pink parakeet!
