Kids love picture books with a character named Olivia because she feels a lot like them. The name and the personality that usually comes with it match how young kids experience the world. Olivia characters tend to be big, bold, and wonderfully expressive. They’re dramatic, confident, full of opinions, and not shy about showing exactly how they feel. Since kids are often told to “calm down” or “use their inside voice,” it’s a delight to see a character who feels everything loudly and proudly. It makes kids feel seen, understood, and allowed to be themselves.
