Lazy Little Loafers | Susan Orlean

2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Orchid Thief comes a smart, hilarious take on what babies contribute—or don’t—to the world. Ever experienced stroller envy? Ever wished you were applauded just for walking across a room? Ever wanted to loaf about the park on a blanket in the middle of a school day with nothing on your agenda but being relaxed and happy? Then you should be a baby. They’ve got it made. In this charming, droll story, a world-weary older sister ponders the question, why don’t more babies work? Her answers, hilariously tinged with resentment, offer up a wickedly accurate picture of just how great babies have it. Known for her keen and witty observations of various subcultures, Susan Orlean here turns her gaze on babies. The resulting picture book is tongue-in-cheek fun for older siblings and anyone looking for a lazy, praise-filled day. F&P Level: L F&P Genre: RF

Lazy Little Loafers | Susan Orlean

Babies are a shiftless, indolent lot, at least according to our young narrator, a Manhattan schoolgirl with a bone to pick. As she walks to school one September morning, accompanied by her mother and stroller-bound baby brother (whom she refuses to acknowledge), she regales the reader with a litany of baby crimes. A â€śuniqueâ€ť viewpoint. #disdain #springsentiments #same #oppositeday
