Olivia Kidney - Hardcover
Although sick and tired of living in her latest apartment building where her father works as a building-super, Olivia Kidney doesn’t necessarily want to move again because she has already moved so much in her young life and so simply wishes to finally be somewhere where she can settle in like everybody else.

When Olivia and her father take up residence in a newapartment building, they both have much to learn about the building'soccupants and each other. As superintendent, George Kidney has dutiesto fulfill, leaving Olivia time to find the friendships shedesperately needs. Her search takes her in and out of apartments andin and out of a fantasy world. Among others, listeners will meetBranwell, Sidi, and Madame Brenda, whose personal stories tell ofaerial views, old farms, and séances. Characters and events, realand imaginary, intertwine at a dizzying pace. With a clear voice andsteady pace, Tara Sands leads the listener through Olivia'sdiscoveries and developing friendships. Sands narrates Olivia as theyoung lady she is--with all the squeals, awe, and disbelief of a youngperson, while also providing distinguishing vocal traits for thesupporting cast.
