This Is One Saucy Pig

Olivia is my hero. Aside from her obviously stellar fashion sense, she is also a highly imaginative young porker with many talents. She headlines circuses, builds skyscrapers out of sand, tells tall tales in class, moves cats. She is illustrated by Ian Falconer, an artist for the
New Yorker. She is based on his young daughter. I assume that his daughter isn't actually a pig.
I was given the book
Olivia Saves the Circus for Christmas. As I already have a copy, I need to regift. If anyone would like it, leave me a comment. The best comment, question, suggestion, or guilty pleasure wins. I'll even pony up for shipping if I don't know you. If there are multiple fabulous comments and I simply can't decide, I'll start making mix CDs or something. The songs won't necessarily be about pigs.
Olivia: She is, in the words of
The Manolo, super fantastic.
