It’s a tale that has had many permutations throughout war, and this one is of two 15 year olds fighting for their own reasons. Oh, I just wanted to cry throughout the story…and unfortunately, I got my “wish” at the end.

In 1996, it was nominated for the Young Hoosier Book Award for Intermediate, and in 1995, it won the Jefferson Cup and the Horn Book Fanfare.

In 1997, Pink and Say won the West Virginia Children’s Book Award and was nominated for the Rebecca Caudill Young Reader’s Book Award. Other books by this author which I have reviewed include Chicken Sunday, The Keeping QuiltĪ children’s picture book (6 – 10) remembering Pinkus Aylee, a colored boy in the Union Army who saved another. Pink and Say by Patricia Polaccoīiography, non-fiction, picture book in Hardcover edition that was published by Philomel Books on Septemand has 48 pages. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the library in exchange for an honest review.
