To the girl who lives next door, it's just plain horrible. She tries to be polite. She tries to talk them out of it, but the Greggs only laugh at her. Then one day the Greggs go too far, and the little girl turns her Magic Finger on them. When she's very, very angry, the little girl's Magic Finger takes over.

Una madre vedova, depressa e totalmente succube della televisione, tutto il denaro della famiglia inghiottito dalle televendite, il frigorifero vuoto e una montagna di bollette da pagare, l'undicesimo compleanno senza torta e senza candeline... È proprio quando a Colomba sembra di aver toccato il fondo, che le cose si mettono a girare vorticosamente e la sua vita diventa più movimentata e interessante di qualsiasi programma televisivo. Solo uno sceneggiatore impazzito potrebbe infatti mescolare nella stessa storia una banda di ragazzini chiamati Mostri Selvaggi, in guerra contro i Predators per il possesso della Ostinata Dimora, con una scimmia destinata allo zoo vaticano che non arriva mai a destinazione. E con una Beauty Farm dove avvengono strabilianti metamorfosi, un suonatore nero di jazz pronipote di un principe-schiavo di stirpe carabalì, un patrigno che è il divo più famoso della televisione, una gatta innamorata di un gallo, un'isola che emerge all'improvviso dalle onde dell'Oceano Pacifico, un livido uomo politico che dai teleschermi incita al razzismo e all'odio contro gli stranieri, un'orfanella dai capelli rossi che vola per le strade su una bicicletta azzurra disseminata di stelle... E dappertutto telecamere indiscrete che cercano di spiare e manipolare le vostre emozioni. Riusciranno i nostri eroi a mantenere il controllo della propria vita, a rimanere fedeli ai propri ideali e a sbaragliare gl'insidiosi nemici?
