Olivia Saves the Circus


Falconer, I. (2001). Olivia Saves the Circus. New York: NY: Simon & Schuster.

Brief Annotation: Olivia is a quirky little pig with a big imagination. In school it’s her turn to share about a trip she took with her family. She told the class about the time she went to the circus. The teacher doesn’t quite believe Olivia’s story, will Olivia use her imagination a little too much?

Genre: Picture book, animal fiction.

Grade Level: K-3

Readers who will like this: Children who like the circus, animal stories, using their imagination, and picture books.

Response/Rating (1-4): 4; I adore this book. It’s so cute, Olivia has such an imagination. The book is very funny and the story line would keep children involved.

One question you would ask before a read aloud: Have you ever been to the circus?
