Olivia is a feisty pig who has more energy than she knows what to do with. She sings loudly, draws on the walls, and builds skyscrapers. Not tired at bedtime, she asks for many stories—much to the chagrin of her exhausted mother.
Set during one of the most tumultuous years in recent American history, one crazy summer is the heartbreaking, funny tale of three girls in search of the mother who abandoned them - an unforgettable story told by a distinguished author of books for children and teens, Rita Williams-Garcia.
