Reviews"Miah Alcorn's illustrations are bright and colorful. Each character's personality reflects on each page. Oliver Chin uses Olivia's story to illustrate some of the characteristics of the ox from the Chinese zodiac. The story also teaches children (hard working and dependable) that nobody's perfect and that nobody can be good at everything. It just takes time to discover what one's talents are." - Northwest Asian Weekly, " The Year of the Ox brings the richness of Chinese heritage to children of all ages." - KTVU, FOX News, Channel 2, San Francisco, CA, "Like the typical ox, Olivia is hard-working, dependable, and a little stubborn. It's a coming-of-age tale of an ox who discovers her best qualities. The illustrations are charming" - Supah Cute, "Oliver Chin's spirited storytelling and Mia Alcorn's spot on characterization and subtle palette combine to bring Olivia and Mei in The Year of the Ox into rambunctious life." - Belle Yang, author
