Oliver the Ornament is a small Chicago-based book and periodical publisher focused on a children's series that centers on a family’s Christmas ornaments. The initial title introduces Oliver, a cherished ornament who remains hopeful and kind despite injury and bullying, with the narrative emphasizing themes of tradition, friendship, forgiveness, and joy during the holiday season. The company positions the first book as the start of a seven-volume series that will explore each family ornament, accompanied by related products designed to reinforce family time and storytelling around keepsakes. A portion of proceeds from each book supports children’s charities, increasing over the series to donate a growing share, reflecting the organization’s charitable focus. The business operates with a small team and is based in Chicago, Illinois, United States, targeting families and readers drawn to heartwarming, family-oriented holiday stories. In 2018, Oliver the Ornament expanded its collection, signaling ongoing development of new titles within its narrative universe.
