Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Best Sister Ever
R. J. Cregg · 2017
62/100
👎 Skip It
A gentle, warmly illustrated Olivia tie-in that models sibling love and thoughtful observation — nothing objectionable here, and young fans of the show will enjoy seeing familiar characters in a new story. The problem is thin narrative substance: this is brand extension, not independent picture-book storytelling. For children who love Olivia it's a fine supplement; as a standalone recommendation it doesn't have enough to distinguish itself.
