5.0 out of 5 stars Embodiment of perseverance!
Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2022

Ollie's Day Gets Rocky is a story that any child or parent can relate to as it depicts an uncontrollable event interfering with Ollie's aspirations which he must learn to overcome through perseverance and the guidance of his friends. Obstacles pop up in our everyday lives that can barely affect us to causing our mood to do a 180 and anyone who has a child knows it doesn't take much for that switch to flip. This is Ollie's main hurdle throughout the story. Originally Ollie assumed the worst and was immediately ready to admit defeat, but thanks to the help of his friends they found a creative solution and gave Ollie the encouragement he needed. Having the right mindset when facing these challenges is an important lesson for anyone to learn as it governs our mood for the foreseeable future. Ollie could have easily turned away from what seemed like an insurmountable reef at first glance, but by taking a step back and confiding in his friends he learned a valuable lesson. Just because something unpredictable happens does not mean future opportunities and possibilities won't be there. So like Ollie every child should learn this lesson and this book gives the perfect chance to do just that which is why I highly recommend this to any parent reading this review.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sweet story about persistence and the power of believing in your dreams.

This book is a delight! Ollie the orange octopus is in a band with his friends. When his band mates fall sick from food poisoning, Ollie doesn’t let that—or his frustration—hamper his dream to enter the local talent show. His friends encourage him to play all their instruments and sing (he is an octopus, after all) in the show. Ollie tries his best, never gives up, and reaches his goal.
With beautiful color illustrations on every page, printed and paperback bound on high-quality matte paper, this book held my 4-year-old’s attention and sparked his imagination. He loved the details of the characters, and their emotional expressions and interactions helped him understand Ollie’s motivation.
Buy this lovely book and you will love reading it to your child!
