Who is Olivia

Ranked #375 in Entertainment, #4,312 overall

Olivia: A Pig with Attitude!

Olivia is a piglet with a style all her own. At six-and-three-quarters years old, she knows her own mind, and her imagination is boundless. The Olivia books are written by Ian Falconer, who obviously knows a thing or two about kids. The Olivia books have sold six million copies worldwide in 20 languages.

Olivia was a huge favorite in our family when my kids were younger, and now she's got her own show on Nick Jr.!
