Description
While walking to school lugging a heavy backpack through New York City one morning, a disgruntled child questions why babies are so lazy, spending their days on useless activities such as napping and babbling rather than getting jobs.
Quick Summary
Kids get to see the world from a hilariously grumpy kid's perspective as they complain about babies having it easy while they trudge to school with heavy backpacks. The witty observations about baby life (no jobs, endless naps, people actually enjoying their company) will make readers laugh while secretly realizing maybe being a kid isn't so bad after all. If your kid likes the relatable humor of "Dear Mrs. LaRue" or the fresh voice of "The Stinky Cheese Man," they'll totally crack up at this NYC classroom take on jealousy and perspective. Perfect for kindergarten through third graders who enjoy silly stories with a clever twist.
