Brief summary:
If Eloise ( of books Eloise and Eloise in Paris) were to have a counterpart it would have to be Olivia -- a little pig with a lot happening. Preschoolers will immediately relate to OliviaÆs ways -- sheÆs got boundless energy, hates naps, and loves to build sandcastles. OliviaÆs as individual as any young pig can be. She likes Degas paintings, enjoys singing songs (very loudly), and thrives on picking on her little brother. But when the day is through, and sheÆs worn her mother out completely, she still hears an ôI love youö, which will re-assure any child that they are loved, too.
