Reviewer: Christian Perring, Ph.D.

Olivia is a terrific
picture book about Olivia, a piglet. 
She is full of energy and creativity. 
She dresses up, sings songs, builds sand castles, dances, visits an art
gallery, paints on walls, and goes to sleep. 
The great charm of the book is in the drawing, which looks like it was
done with the help of computer graphics, but retains a strongly human feel. Olivia gives a wonderful portrayal of
a vibrant young pig, and it’s funny too.
