Description

On a crisp Christmas Eve in a sleepy village, young Flame Nourice discovers a most unexpected tenant at the rickety Rattle‑Pane House. A red‑haired setter with a single black ear, a lemon‑and‑white couch‑shaped hound, and a spotless ink‑spotted pooch romp through the rooms, prompting Flame to race home and tell her baffled mother about the canine coup.

As the dogs tumble through garlands, topple paint and chew holiday decorations, the story captures the chaotic joy of a Christmas that refuses to be ordinary. Flame’s spirited narration, full of playful language and bright winter images, invites listeners to share in the wonder of a house transformed by wagging tails and festive mayhem. The narrative stays rooted in the simple, childlike wonder of the season, promising a cheerful listening experience that celebrates both dogs and the magic of Christmas.
