Olivia...and the Missing Toy

(2) K-3 In the third book starring the precocious piglet, Olivia loses her favorite stuffed toy and discovers, in a mock-horrific climax on "a dark and stormy night," that the dog has chewed it to pieces. Falconer pads the slender plot with some more of Olivia's characteristic mugging. The drawing is superb; green accents in the pictures here give young viewers something to scout for amidst Olivia's signature red and black.
