This book felt like a collage of ideas, and not a complete story. I didn't like Olivia's behavior, and I didn't like that she doesn't seem to have learned from it. I was chocked that the illustrator decided to go with the stereotypical image of the mom feeding the baby while the dad is completely absorbed in his newspaper. As Olivia asks him a question, he decides to go with the easy and fast solution, instead of building a great educational moment with his daughter.

A disappointment. It was my first book from the Olivia series.
