Title: Baby Fishmouth is Sweeping the Nation
Review: Weisberger's follow-up to her 2001 debut "God Wears Pajamas" is full of faded ideas and tattered characters. In "GWP" she invented a St. Peter who hands out p.j.s at the Gates of Heaven. Portraying God as an advocate of the happy nap was an inspired idea, and it elevated this reader's conciousness to levels not achieved since I first read Camus. In "Prada", however, the gag of Satan forcing new arrivals to don uncomfortable garments seems contrived. So you didn't get into Heaven and now you have to sleep in golf shoes. So what? It's impossible for the reader to connect the dots when Weisberger offers fewer than you find in a typical elipses. While dissapointed, I still look forward to next year's final installment of this trilogy, "Buddha Wears Von Dutch".
