Reach for this book when your child is feeling the heavy burden of growing up, whether they are complaining about school, chores, or the unfairness of 'big kid' responsibilities. Through the eyes of a disgruntled student trekking through New York City, this story humorously examines why babies get to nap and play while everyone else has to work. It is a witty, relatable validation of a child's frustration with their daily routine. By framing the life of an infant as a series of missed professional opportunities, Susan Orlean provides a clever way for parents to acknowledge their child's feelings of jealousy toward younger siblings or the simplicity of toddlerhood. This urban tale is perfect for children aged 4 to 8 who are navigating the transition into the elementary school years and need a laugh to help lighten the load of their expanding world.
