The precocious pig and her family travel to Venice. They go sightseeing and eat lots of gelato, but Olivia simply cannot find the perfect souvenir. Though the story, with its eye-catching mixed-media illustrations, seems more like a travelogue than a narrative, Olivia's various escapades throughout the city will remind readers of what they love about her.
