Didn’t Like It “The artwork is amazing as always, but the story is definitely lacking. The random storyline doesn't really have much to do with forming a band. This is not representative of the other books in the series which are all much, much better.” see full review » see other reviews » |

About This Book
Everyone's favorite Caldecott Honor-winning porcine diva is back and with fanfare!
There are going to be fireworks tonight, and Olivia can hardly wait to hear the band. But when she finds out that there isn't going to be a band, she can't understand why not. How can there be fireworks without a band?! And so Olivia sets to putting a band together herself..."all" by herself. Using pots, pans, her brother's toys, and even her father's suspenders, Olivia forms a band spectacular enough to startle any audience.
Lavishly brought to life in Ian Falconer's signature style, and introducing an eye-catching shade of blue, here is Olivia doing what Olivia does best — making noise.
”“You can't help but to fall in love with Olivia, in Olivia Forms a Band. There is a dry humor in the way Ian Falconer portrays Olivia and her family. My favorite parts include all of the kids having to go to the bathroom when they get to the fireworks and Olivia dreaming that she is Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.”
