Third Olivia book released

Wednesday October 8, 2003
If you and your family love Ian Falconer's Olivia, the pig with an attitude, I have good news for you. Falconer's third picture book about Olivia has just been released by Atheneum. In an entertaining USA Today article, entitled "Oink if you love 'Olivia,'" Falconer describes his latest book, Olivia ... and the Missing Toy, as "a thriller for the 3-to-8 set." The author and illustrator wrote his first book about the headstrong, yet lovable, pig as a gift for his niece, Olivia. Olivia was published in 2000 and Olivia Saves the Circus the following year.

Below is a new query that's been posted on the About Children's Books Forum: I need your help in answering it.
"Hello, I am trying to find a book I had when I was a child...1970's...I don't know the title or author, all I remember is a few lines...it went like this:
My name is Kate, I am a kitten. I live in a house in the country....
Does anyone remember this book?"
If you recognize the book, please post information on our forum. recall recall
