Olivia is a normal teenage girl who enjoys all the things other girls do but she is different and special in her own unique way. This is a fun and loving tale of Olivia the teenage octopus who wants what all kids want which is to be accepted for who she is and the special talents that she has  because she has eight hands. She is very talented at many things and all she really wants is to be appreciated for her differences and not excluded because of them.Julia Dweck has delivered this fun and valuable lesson in an enjoyable and loving way that make this a book that parents should share with their children. This book will remind kids and parents alike to accept each other and to enjoy and embrace the differences and uniqueness of every individual.The illustrations by Dave McTaggart are colorful and sharp lending to the great feel for this book. This is a wonderful book for children to share not only with their parents but with each other as well.
