"Samuel knows that their real name is Simone, but things at their house are too quiet to think about how to tell their parents. When Chloe the costume designer moves in across the street with a dog about to have puppies, life becomes bigger, more colourful, and louder. And so does Simone. Detail: Samuel has a new babysitter, Chloe -- a costume designer for actors in movies and theatre. "At Chloe's house, nothing is quiet!" When Chloe's dog, Piano, gives birth to four puppies, Samuel wishes they could have one, but their parents won't allow it. As Samuel and Chloe name the puppies, Samuel shares that when they was born, their parents hadn't heard the baby fairy correctly - they thought the fairy had whispered "Samuel" but she had really said "Simone.""-- Provided by publisher.
