The Nanny Diaries
The Nanny Diaries The Nanny Diaries : A Novel

 US publication set to cause media sensation, with film rights sold to Miramax for a six-figure sum

 Julia Roberts has been signed up to read for audio book

Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus spent a combined eight years working as nannies in Manhattan. Inside the Park Avenue penthouses of their employers, they were witness and accomplice to the nebulous lives of the NYC rich and privileged. The Nanny Diaries is the debut novel from Emma and Nicola based on their real-life experiences.

The Nanny Diaries' heroine is aptly named Nan, and she works for Mr. and Mrs. X., caring for their only child Grayer. Grayer is the average four year-old. His day includes but is not limited to music, swimming, karate, piano and French lessons, in addition to school, play-dates and naptime. Mrs X’s calender is equally full, thrusting Nan into the full-time job of managing not one, but two lives. The Nanny Diaries follows Nan’s outrageous, shocking and hilariously funny life as she tries to work, study and chase men in a post-nuclear family world.

A poignant satire, The Nanny Diaries wickedly captures the lives of the real Manhattan elite. A comtemporary Mary Poppins story with attitude.
