María Olvido

the long version

"Para María ponerse el jersey o cerrar la puerta no eran cosas importantes y por eso olvidaba el cepillo en la nevera o el camisón en la despensa. Así que la llamaron Marí Olvido. Pero un día su padre tuvo que hacer unos recados y le encargó a María unas tareas. Entonces pasó lo nunca visto. Si todo el mundo olvidara sus tareas, ¿qué pasaría?,"--back cover. "Maria has a tough time remembering things that she doesn't think are very important. She forgets her sweater at home, leaves the outside door open, puts her comb down next to the milk in the fridge, and leaves her nightgowns in the pantry. This is why everyone calls her Forgetful Maria. One day, her dad has to run errands and leaves her in charge of completing a few household chores. If she forgets, no one will remind her. If everyone in the world forgot their chores, what would happen?"--Amazon.com.
