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.

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.
