Oh, Olive!


Olive doesn’t make art like anyone around her.” And you know what? She doesn’t care—and that’s exactly why I love this book!


Oh, Olive! is a joyful explosion of colour, creativity, and confidence. Olive comes from a family of artists, but she doesn’t follow the expected path.


Her art is bold, unique, and unapologetically her own. She doesn’t waver, doesn’t question, and never feels guilty for being different. How refreshing is that?


This delightful picture book reminds us that creativity thrives when it’s free from conformity. It’s a love letter to individuality, showing how embracing your style can bring joy—not just to you, but to everyone around you.


As an adult (and let’s be honest, sometimes a “square”), this story nudged me to rethink how we nurture creativity in kids. It’s a gentle reminder to let them explore, express, and colour outside the lines—even if it looks nothing like what we expect.


Perfect for little dreamers and big thinkers, Oh, Olive! is a celebration of persistence, self-expression, and the magic of being true to yourself.


A must-read for families, teachers, and anyone who loves a little splash of colour in their lives!
