There's a new hot book out called "The
Nanny Diaries." It's fiction, and it's a hilarious and cutting
look at taking care of wealthy children. The authors, Emma McLaughlin
and Nicola Kraus, worked as nannies during their college years
in New York, and I caught up with them over a cup of hot chocolate
in a funky New York cafe in the Angelika Theatre in Soho. In one
chapter in the book, they describe just what a vacation to Nantucket
is like for a nanny. Nicola, or Nikki, says the vacations aren't
the perks of traveling with the rich that you might imagine them to be.
