Olivia is so excited when she finds out that her class is putting on a special play. Olivia is sure she'll land the leading role. But instead of getting the lead role, she is assigned the role of "Cow Number 2" and has only one line in the whole play: "Moo!" With her penchant for turning lemons into lemonade, and the determination and humor that's unique to Olivia, she manages to secure her place in the spotlight after all.

Olivia Animation Series Book,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Olivia Acts Out (Olivia TV Tie-In) (Hardcover)
I was hesitant to buy this book since it is from the animated series, but my kids are such fans of Olivia, they just can't get enough. I just got it from amazon yesterday and we read it three times before bed. It has raised figures on the pages which my kids liked to run their fingers over. The illustrations are not like Ian falconer's at all. They are directly from the television series which is a sweet and funny animated version of the original book series. It is one of the few shows that I let the kids watch because it has very little or no whining and fighting in it. It also maintains the sense of humor and empowerment that Olivia carries with her. It's high quality -thicker pages good for the young ones -and inexpensive and perfect for a gift or to feed the hunger for more Olivia!

OLIVIA STEALS THE SHOW ...... AGAIN,
This review is from: Olivia Acts Out (Olivia TV Tie-In) (Hardcover)
How can you not love Olivia? This perky, playful little porker is always up to some sort of smile provoking mischief. And often her doings also hold a lesson for young readers.
It's that time of year again at Olivia's school - time for the annual school play. Never one to under estimate her abilities Olivia is quite certain she will be given the leading role in The Fairy Queen. However, much to Olivia's distress Francine is given the role of the Fairy Queen and, oh, dear, Olivia is to be Cow Number Two. It's quite one thing to be cast as a cow but to make matter worse she has no speaking lines - all the audience will hear from Olivia is one "Moo." Olivia is pretty downcast until her father reminds her, "Well, just remember: it's not what you say; it's how you say it." Youngsters will enjoy the emphasis, intonations and drama Olivia is able to bring to the one syllable "Moo," and also be happily surprised to learn what Olivia comes up with to almost steal the show. - Gail Cooke

love Olivia but not this one!,
This review is from: Olivia Acts Out (Olivia TV Tie-In) (Hardcover)
I really enjoy the Olivia books but this one is just so boring. It doesn't keep my daughters attention either.
