Meet Olivette, who wants kids to know that "all of it is YOU!" and to embrace every part of themselves. The brainchild of actor Nico Tortorella, this buoyant story is a celebration of all the many different parts of us.

Olivette is here to let you in on a secret: you can be anything you want to be. And even better, you can be all of it! Olivette is energetic, moody, and unique—just like you, Olivette contains multitudes. 

Olivette Is You—all of it is you—is inspired by actor, musician, and author Nico Tortorella's own experience. Through this buoyant picture book, Nico shows you that you don’t have to choose who or what to be; you are already everything.
★ "A celebratory anthem about individuality and uniqueness through all the possibilities that reside within children and eventually adults." —School Library Journal, starred review

"Take a cue from this assertive protagonist: Rejoice in who you are and be all you can be." —Kirkus Reviews

"Employing uplifting first-person rhymes, performer Tortorella pays tribute to every individual’s uniqueness." —Publishers Weekly
Nico Tortorella is an actor, television personality, and author of the poetry collection all of it is you. Nico stars in the hit series Younger and is an outspoken advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community. They live in New York. View titles by Nico Tortorella

After graduating with a BFA in illustration from Brigham Young University, she found her way to Los Angeles to work in children’s animation and enjoyed some time at DreamWorks and Nickelodeon.
