"I remember reading this book when I was younger--it was one of the first books I could read on my own, probably in the first or second grade. I love it as much now as I did then!" — Amy (5 out of 5 stars)

" I actually preferred Oliver and his sister, Amanda to Frog and Toad. A bit edgier, Oliver and Amanda are refreshingly flawed. Much, much easier to relate to. "
" Cute, well-done series. Oliver is often in social situations similar to those kids face. Good stories. "
" My kids have discovered Oliver the Pig! I like the older ones illustrated by Lobel better, but my kids enjoy them all. "
" Purchased for my collection. "
