Vinton was a young boy failing his classes at school and as a punishment, his mother put him in diapers and instituted babying until he improved. But what really makes the story are the four girls from his school who are selected as his babysitters and how they all interact.

What commences as a nightmare becomes a learning exercise and a time of discovery of one of the forgotten joys of being little - diapers and being cared for as a baby.

It is a delightful tale of a world where a mother could care enough to take seemingly draconian steps but with an unexpected and wonderful outcome for them all.
