Description: Pink.

PINK.

PINK.

Madison loved pink. Wholly, completely, deeply, truly pink. Is there any other color in the world? No -- never. What for? Did there ever need to be?

Day by day, Madison begins to create a totally pink world. What could be more perfect? Perfectly pink! But something is missing....

Then Madison remembers her favorite brown bear, her red fire truck, her green balloon. Pink is nice -- it really is -- but it needs the other colors to shine, and so does Madison! What is she to do now?
