    Neuf de l'école des loisirs: Il y a un garçon dans les toilettes des filles
    • L'adresse de Bradley, c'est au fond de la classe, dernière place du dernier rang, personne à côté, personne devant. Si son bureau avait pu y entrer, il l'aurait mis dans le placard et ç'aurait été mieux pour tout le monde, pense-t-il. Au-dessus de sa tête, il y a un tableau d'honneur sur lequel sont affichées les étoiles d'or obtenues par les bons élèves. Inutile de dire que Bradley n'en a jamais obtenu. Bradley n'a pas d'amis, sauf ses animaux en plastique, à la maison. Bradley n'aime personne, dit-il. Surtout pas lui-même. Et il ment à tout le monde, à commencer par lui-même. Mais cette année, deux événements se produisent à la rentrée : un nouveau s'assied à côté de Bradley et Carla, la jeune conseillère d'éducation, a décidé de croire à tous ses mensonges. Voilà de quoi faire vaciller sérieusement les convictions du jeune garçon.
