The book was a birthday gift & arrived 16 days after the child’s birthday. Review: Olivia - Strong Female - Olivia, a Caldecott Honor Book, by Ian Falconer is a children's picture book that captures the heart of a confident, strong-minded child. This is the first in a series of Olivia books by Falconer that incorporates the supposed personalities of his own children. Olivia has a wide range of interests from soccer to drama but puts her own flair on them all. This book goes through snippets of Olivia's days. Some say it it disjointed, but the movement from activity to activity speaks well to a young child's short attention span. The short sentences and simple format of the black, white and red pictures and words make this a visually interesting book as well. The pages of words are not overwhelming for a young reader/listener. There is also criticism of Olivia's attitude. I think a parent of a strong-willed child might recognize this as real life handled with humor. Falconer introduces young readers to artists when Olivia visits an art museum. She is disciplined with a "time out" for her Jackson Pollock "reproduction" on the wall at home showing that she does not go unpunished. The book is also honest about Olivia's tenacity, "She is very good at wearing people out. She even wears herself out." This look at a girl who feels her potential is unlimited is a timely, funny read for both children and adults. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #12,274 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #47 in Children's Pig Books (Books) #471 in Children's Humor #828 in Children's Literature (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,607) | | Dimensions | 6.25 x 0.9 x 8.25 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | Grade level | Preschool - Kindergarten | | ISBN-10 | 0689874723 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0689874727 | | Item Weight | 1.15 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 34 pages | | Publication date | October 1, 2004 | | Publisher | Atheneum Books for Young Readers | | Reading age | 1 - 4 years, from customers | ## Images ![Olivia - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ltij7lfLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Took too long to arrive! *by B***R on September 25, 2025* While the product was great, it took over 3 weeks to arrive!

My adult grand daughter enjoyed these stories as a little girl, and I hope to encourage another generation of adventurous little girl readers to be confident and brave enought to try new things. The book is easy to clean, durable, and the binding is secure to last for years. ## Frequently Bought Together - Olivia - Olivia Saves the Circus (Classic Board Books) - Olivia and the Fairy Princesses --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/5890863-olivia](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/5890863-olivia) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
