When the Dionne Quintuplets were born on May 28, 1934, weighing a grand total of just over 13 pounds, no one expected them to live so much as an hour. Overnight, Yvonne, Annette, Cécile, Émilie, and Marie Dionne mesmerized the globe, defying medical history with every breath they took. In an effort to protect them from hucksters and showmen, the Ontario government took custody of the five identical babies, sequestering them in a private, custom-built hospital across the road from their family - and, in a stunning act of hypocrisy, proceeded to exploit them for the next nine years.

Love the Quints!
Revisado: 04-08-21
I have been a collector of Dionne memorabilia since I was about 10. While antiquing with my mom I found sheet music (learned their story-loved how ADORABLE they are) and I was hooked! I’m 50 this week! So-I really DO know the whole story pretty much. I have picked up and read books here and there-but was nice to hear the whole story again. I think? this follows WE WERE FIVE a lot too. I started reading that earlier and then decided to listen to this via Audible-having the hardback book as well. It was just nice to listen to while cleaning.
The only thing that drove me CRAZY was reading their 5 names instead of just saying “The Quints” every. single. time. MAYBE that’s for their sake though-to give each girl their own identity?
