Another fantastic Ollie book, even better than the first, I think.

In this book, Ollie learns about Empathy - such an important theme with the events that are going on in the world today. I think we all need a little more empathy and, maybe teaching something like this to children will give us a generation that is more mindful of the feelings of those around them.

I heard a poem today, which contained the line: "Never taught how to human, only learned how not to monster".

This is the real power of Ollie - he teaches us "how to human".

Of course, being Ollie, there is also far more fun than just that, but I won't spoil the story by telling you everything he does. Suffice to say it is another brilliant little book that gently shows the reader how they too can use their own super powers for good!

Ollie is truly going places and I can't wait to see the next step in his journey!
