by: Ian Falconer Average Rating: ![]() Product Description: When it comes time to tell the class what she did on her vacation, Olivia isn't at all nervous. In fact, she remembers it quite clearly--she went to the circus, you see. 'But when we got there, all the circus people were out sick with ear infections.' What are the odds? But the show must go on! Fortunately, Olivia jumps right in to help out--riding elephants, posing as the Tattooed Lady (she draws on the pictures with a marker), taming lions, walking tightropes, juggling, clowning around, and more. In a marvelous fold-out, four-panel spread, our porcine heroine even reigns supreme as the Queen of the Trampoline. 'And that's how I saved the circus. And now I am famous.' Olivia looks proud. Her teacher looks mad. Ian Falconer shines in this dryly hilarious sequel to his 2001 Caldecott Honor Book Rating: - I L. O. V. E. IT!Olivia is awesome and one expects the sequels to "classics" to be as good or better than the first, this one is!!! I LOVE IT and you will too! Rating: - Same Humorous OliviaMy 2-year-old son loves the first Olivia book and was thrilled when we found this one at the library. He had it memorized after the first day, so I thought it was worth adding to his collection. He frequently requests "Queen of the Trampoline". I like that in Ian Falconer's books there is some humor directed at the parents, too. Rating: - My least favoriteThis is my least favorite of the Olivia books. I think it went too far with Olivia's exageration. However, it's an Olivia book, and you've just got to love the simplicity and humor of everything Olivia. I would recommend "Olivia and the Missing Toy" instead.
