What do we think of when we think pink?

Through engaging mini essays, interactive exercises, object studies, and interviews, readers will learn about a vibrant miscellany of pink facts and pink occurrences: like iconic applications of the color, from Elvis''s cars to cotton candy; or the etymology of phrases like tickled pink, pink slip, or rose-tinted glasses. Presented in an eye-catching pink package with vibrant page edges, this collection will captivate those with a passion for pink and anyone with a curiosity about color.
