Description

In this picture book, a baby still in the womb complains to its mother about having nothing to do. The story is told entirely from the perspective of the unborn baby, who is connected to its mother by the umbilical cord. The baby describes the cramped, boring environment of the womb and wonders about life in the outside world with Pop and Ma.
