Olivia

Falconer, I. (2009).  Olivia.  NY:  Atheneum.

Olivia is a fun-loving pig that wears her mother and everyone else out.  She tries on every outfit she has before picking just the right one.  When she goes to the museum, she thinks she can make an abstract painting so she paints one on her bedroom wall.  She dances during her nap time.  Olivia loves her family and they love her despite the fact that she wears them out!

Ian Falconer creates a fun character for all children and parents  to quickly adore.  Olivia is like most kids, even though she is a pig. She doesn’t like naps and she draws on walls.  Her mom says that Olivia wears her out, but Olivia is loved anyway.
