Ian Falconer

Olivia has one toy that she loves more than anything. She feeds him, dresses him and takes him everywhere. So when he disappears, Olivia is FURIOUS!
She looks under the rug, under the sofa, under the cat. She shouts at Ian and baby William, she cries, she stomps...all to no avail. Then, one dark and stormy night, Olivia hears a noise...Clutching a candelabra, she creeps bravely into her bedroom, and sees a huge menacing shadow on the wall. Who...

As she impatiently waits for Santa's arrival, Olivia the pig tries to help with family preparations on the day before Christmas.

Whether at home getting ready for the day, enjoying the beach, or at bedtime, Olivia is a feisty pig who has too much energy for her own good.

On a family vacation in Venice, Olivia indulges in gelato, rides in a gondola, and finds the perfect souvenir.

Listening in on her mother's conversations hoping to discover the secret plan for her upcoming birthday, Olivia instead hears her mother talking about her poor behavior and becomes concerned she'll be sent to military school.

Combines artwork from Ian Falconer's picture books about the precocious pig, Olivia, with inspirational quotations about imagination, having big dreams, and enjoying life.

Presents the letters of the alphabet represented by Olivia's favorite objects and activities, from "a" for accessories to "e" for earmuffs, "g" for gingerbread, "j" for juggling, and "r" for rabbits.
