Ollie is a Giggling Books children’s story about a little oyster who longs to play with his friends, but because of physical limitations cannot get around on his own. Ollie is full of self-pity and anger for not having any arms or legs (fins) with which to swim as all of his pals have, and because he disobeys his parents, he gets himself into a very dangerous, “pearl-less” situation in which he almost loses his life to a very bad sea creature. Ollie’s rescue requires the participation of the entire community of Sea City. GigglingBooks.com is a children’s book company promoting the best illustrated childrens books with great morals.
