In her later books, Estes develops a unique way of writing that chimes wonderfully with a child's approach to language, lots of repetition, but always with variety, lots of in-jokes that develop through the book, strongly differentiated characters.
In this book she adds an engaging and entirely believable personification of the cat psyche, in the character of the kitten, Pinkly.
Highly recommended.

A Must-Read For All
Reviewed in the United States on 2 September 2017Verified Purchase
Still love the classic Pye family stories. Just finished reading Ginger Pye to my almost 6 year old grandson and am embarking on Pinky Pye. He asked me to read to him every day and this is a very active child. I would read at least a (loooong) chapter, which actually took quite a while. He was completely engaged and even drew some illustrations himself. I loved the experience and the story as well.

The Cat Has It!
Reviewed in the United States on 20 February 2006Verified Purchase
Pinky Pye is yet another well written book by Elenor Estes. As appealing as both the Moffats series and the infamous Ginger Pye. This title is an excellent choice for both the traditional and creative book report formats for readers of 4th through 6th grades. If you love animals, and a solid story line of sibling relationship, this book is for you! Besides, where else could you read about a typewriting cat!
