J. Otto Seibold has a design hit with Olive, My Love (Harcourt).
The beloved hero of Olive, the Other Reindeer is back again for a new adventure. This time Olive isn�t heading off to the North Pole to help Santa; she�s out to return a one-of-a-kind lost object: a heart. And not just any heart, but one as large as Olive�s own. In her search to find its one true owner, she makes the acquaintance of a cast of characters who show her what it truly means to give all of one�s love.
Olive My Love is a wacky, witty and weirdly heartwarming story in which anything can happen if only one follows one's heart.
Vivian Walsh is also the author of Penguin Dreams, Monkey Business, Free Lunch and many more great books for kids. J. Otto Seibold illustrated Gluey: A Snail Tale and The Pig in the Spigot, among others. His website offers great downloads and games: http://jotto.com
