Olivia is a favourite children’s character with sales in the millions and now after a longish break she’s back in a brand new adventure. In it the normally irrepressible Olivia is a bit down; after a series of mishaps that could happen to anyone (blueberry smoothie up the kitchen wall, a machine load of shirts dyed pink), she overhears her mother discussing what should be done with her.
People who eavesdrop never hear good – in her own words Olivia picks up only ‘partial truths and misinformation’ and is left feeling ‘insecure and suspicious’! All works out well of course but it makes for a wonderful and very droll story. Olivia is one in a million, a character to charm readers of all ages and Ian Falconer has produced another tour de force. ~ Andrea Reece
