Olive Oh Saves Saturday

By Tina Kim and Tiff Bartel

Olive Oh can’t wait to spend a weekend camping with her best friend Marcus Wong and his family. They’ll get to see stars, observe nature, and—best of all—get away from Olive’s older siblings, whose bossy advice is driving her nuts. But a week of rainy weather threatens to cancel Olive’s weekend plans. Will Olive be stuck at home with her crabby siblings? Or can she still find a way to save the day?

Olive Oh is going to be a famous artist when she grows up. Right now, she’s in third grade, using her creative thinking to find solutions to all kinds of problems. Her ideas often lead to unexpected adventures for her family and friends. But as any good artist knows, messiness is often part of the process.

Reviews for Olive Oh Saves Saturday

[oregonreader · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I enjoyed reading this. Olive is a very creative thinker. I often read with my 8 year old granddaughter, Grace. I thought it would be interesting to read this Early Reviewer copy together. Both Olive and Grace are in third grade and think of themselves as artists. We read this together then discussed the book. Grace really liked the character of Amy, especially the way she talks to her mother and older siblings. She said it was very realistic. She was curious about Olive's family's Korean ways. She like the way Olive saved a camping trip from rain and overall, gave the book 3 stars but I would give it 4.

This is a fun read, that shows diversity and some cultural awareness. We get to see Olive’s family at home, and how Korean families relationships work. Olive and her siblings have to deal with all their weekend plans being foiled by rain. Can they get over their disappointment?

Cute book for early readers. Olive Oh is a bit like Ruby Lu, and a bit like Ramona Quimby. If there are more books in the series I will recommend them to other early readers.

Delightful story of Olive Oh and her 3 friends. They are going camping and everyone is excited. Olive is looking for her book "Handbook of constellations" to take with them. But first they have to get through school. Despite all their plans the weather turns bad and it rains, everyone is depressed because of the rain but Olive decides that they will go camping in her house. She gathers blankets and sheets, pillows, her sticky glow-in -the dark stars and other things and builds a indoor camp. Everyone comes and they share the day. -- fun for everyone. Imagination can be a wonderful thing.
