This Plant Is NOT Boring
Marie Hoy-Kenny, illustrated by Mike Deas
Mia hopes for a dog, but her mother asks her to begin with a plant instead. At first, Mia sees the plant as uninteresting because it cannot do the things she associates with a pet. Then it starts consuming her belongings, including her sandwich and stuffed lion, and leaves a message on a bathroom mirror. After finding the plant’s care tag, Mia understands that its behavior is connected to how she cares for it, and considers whether it could become a companion.
