Edwina the Emu Book

I'm really just confused about this whole thing. This book is a huge mess from start finish - and slightly offensive to boot.

So here we have two emus - Edward and Edwina. One day Edwina's like yo! Edward get it in gear because I just laid ten, count 'em, TEN EGGS. Edward starts to freak out, but Edwina's got in under control. Why? Because she's a woman on the fast track of life, that's why. Stay here and look after the eggs Edward, mamas gonna go out and get a job.

And so Edwina goes out and interviews for a wide variety of jobs, faithfully taking the bus to each one (how civic minded and eco friendly our feathered protagonist is!). But wait! No one will hire her. At each and every one people basically go "whoa! That's a bird! We can't hire a bird here! I don't even know what paper work we'd begin to fill out for that!" But Edwina never looses her cool, just shrugs it off and says that no worry, she'll find the JOB just for her. See what I did there? SHe specifies JOB each time.

The only problem is, she never does. Instead she comes back to the nest because, uh oh, wacky daddy can't handle being left alone with children and her place is obviously in the nest!

So what we're left with here is an aborted plot point about an emu on a city bus trying to find a job that ends in a bit of a back slap to feminism.

What is this book's target audience?
