She also has a big mission: she will read all the books—every single one! She reads every book in her house…and then her friends’ houses…and then the whole block. Nonfiction, fiction, romance, mysteries, and science fiction. But when her mother takes her to the downtown library, she realizes there are a lot more books than she thought…way more. Maybe she can’t really read all the books—now what?

C''est l''histoire d''une petite fille qui s''ennuie beaucoup, tout le temps. Elle s''ennuie tant, que quand elle rencontre une patate, elle lui propose même de jouer avec elle. Mais la patate, comme toutes les patates, ne fait pas preuve de beaucoup d''enthousiasme. Car les enfants la laissent indifférente : ce qu''elle aime, elle, ce sont les flamants roses... Face à autant d''inertie, la petite fille trouve alors en elle des trésors d''ingéniosité... Il ne lui reste plus qu''à prouver à la patate que les enfants ont toujours pleins d''idées pour s''occuper et sont plein de ressources ! En un mot, qu''il y a 1 000 choses à faire quand on s''ennuie. Mais la patate s''ennuie toujours. Et si l''ennui n''était qu''une question de mauvaise volonté ? L''héroïne, une petite fille aux couettes hautes perchées, est croquée avec talent ; les expressions dépitées de la patate valent le détour et la chute de l''histoire ravira à coup sûr petits et grands ! Un titre plein d''humour, pas ennuyeux un seul instant !
