A heartwarming and humorous chapter book about a boy learning to take control of his life and make his own choices.
In How Oliver Olson Changed the World, award-winning children's book author Claudia Mills introduces readers to Oliver, a young boy whose overprotective parents won't let him do anything on his own—not even his class projects or attending the space sleepover at school. Afraid of becoming an outsider like ex-planet Pluto, Oliver decides it's time to take control of his corner of the universe!
With lively illustrations by Heather Maione, this irresistible chapter book follows Oliver as he navigates family dynamics, builds confidence, makes new friends, and ultimately learns that before you can change the world, sometimes you need to change yourself. Perfect for readers ages 7-10, How Oliver Olson Changed the World is a fast-paced, humorous story that will resonate with kids who feel sheltered and are ready to start making their own choices.
