«Olivia» is the children's picture book by Ian Falconer, published by Atheneum Books for Young Readers in hardback (40 pages, in English).
Olivia is a little pig with lots of energy and imagination. Throughout the day she gets dressed, sings, builds sandcastles, dances and paints on the walls, until she finally falls asleep. The story, told with humour, shows the determined character of this little protagonist and her antics from morning to night.
First title in the Olivia series, by Ian Falconer. It was a Caldecott Honor Book and number one on the New York Times bestseller list.
Aimed at children aged 3 to 7; a children's classic that works very well as a shared read-aloud.
