PS
An offstage narrator addresses listeners using the language of the hospitality industry: "THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. / ...ENJOY YOUR STAY." Our world is presented as a cruise ship–like place: "Many activities are available for you to enjoy, including, but not limited to: / SLEEPING and WAKING, / EATING and BURPING, / POOPING and MORE POOPING." The whole (cardstock-page) board book is brilliantly executed and hilarious; it's also best suited to adults.
