Olivia's favorite toy is lost and she is determined to find out answers: where has it gone and who took it away?

This book was an interesting enough read. It started out just a wee too long for young readers with lots of backstory about the toy. But then it moved along to the mystery aspect, ultimately landing on a satisfying conclusion. A good mystery should always be rewarding in its payout and this one does deliver. It also manages to incorporate some small elements of the classic noir while staying child friendly.

My hesitation with more wholeheartedly recommending this book is that Olivia acts a bit bratty/spoiled in certain parts. By the end, she's behaved a little better but it's not really addressed how some of her previous actions weren't the best. ( )

About as cute as the original Olivia book. Dame Edna narrates this audiobook. ( )

"Olivia... and the Missing Toy" is not a great read because it is quite long for not having a larger overall message. The little girl in the story loses her toy and eventually finds out that her dog was the one who took it but she forgives her dog in the end for ruining her toy. The overall message is forgiveness with an added bonus of ways to handle emotions. ( )

Hyperactive porcine wonder Olivia returns in this third picture-book devoted to her hilarious adventures, following upon the Caldecott Honor-winning Olivia, and the fun follow-up, Olivia Saves the Circus. Here Olivia finds that her favorite toy has gone missing, and in a film-noir setting, she explores the mystery. The solution - the family dog Perry has eaten her beloved plaything - proves rather mundane, but Olivia is capable of making a drama of anything. Fortunately, she's also capable of forgiveness...

Like its predecessors, I found Olivia and the Missing Toy absolutely hilarious! Ian Falconer has a real gift for capturing the simultaneously stubborn and sweet quality of his little piglet heroine, as well as the sometimes appalled, but always loving reactions of her very patient mother. The artwork, done in charcoal and gouache, captures all the little humorous details in the story, as well as adding some of its own. I particularly appreciated the use of a darker background, and a strategically placed candelabra, in the 'film noir' mystery sequence. All in all, another winner in this wonderful picture-book series! Recommended to anyone who has read and enjoyed the other Olivia books, or who is looking for children's stories featuring imaginative and somewhat madcap little girls. ( )
