Illustrated by
Viviana Garofoli.
A baby-to-be laments having nothing to do in utero: "I'm all in a heap here. My feet are asleep here. I'm flat out of space. I've got knees in my face." Readers may find this fetus's-eye-view a revelation, not to mention very funny, especially thanks to illustrations of a jumbo-headed, umbilical-corded babe whose fantasies include driving a truck.
