On Planet Fruitcake

Cette année, Miranda Hilliard a besoin de quelqu'un pour s'occuper de ses trois enfants, Lydia, Christopher et Natalie, et de la maison. « Pourquoi pas moi ? » propose Daniel, son ex-mari, un acteur au chômage. « Pas question », réplique Miranda. Elle veut une personne de confiance, quelqu'un de solide, avec des principes et sans aucune fantaisie. Tout le contraire, pense-t-elle, de Daniel. Alors arrive Madame Doubtfire. Une vraie perle. Du moins en apparence. Car un père acteur peut être prêt à tout, et même à se déguiser en gouvernante poudrée pour être avec ses enfants. Mais comment va-t-il faire pour n'éveiller les soupçons ni de ses enfants ni de Miranda ?

Ma Mère Est Impossible

Everyone knows that Louis is a loudmouth, he never stops talking and drives everyone crazy. No one believes him when he announces that he's going to do a sponsored silence to raise money for the new school library. But Louis is determined, just for once, to keep his mouth shut. To his surprise he finds that he actually enjoys listening, that lessons are much better when he's really involved in them - and that it's very satisfying to raise money for the school.
