Title is somewhat self explanatory. I'm specifically looking for a books with similar vibes to shows like "Bee and Puppycat," "Sailor Moon," or "Summer Camp Island"? From what I understand, it's very hard to keep the same whimisical and childish feel of these shows in the written form. I used to imagine that somewhere out there was a book about the mythical Candyland, my cousins and I dreamed about: I tried to tackle writing this myself but I'm lacking. I don't have a problem with purple prose books btw (as long as it's good purple prose w/ a purpose). Any and all recommendations would be appreciated. Just don't recommend me something nonsensical like Fifty Shades of Grey or Wuthering Heights.
