The Incubator Baby

by Ellis Parker Butler

What if a baby was raised in a sterile, scientific environment, devoid of human interaction? Marjorie Fielding is born prematurely and placed in an incubator at Coney Island. Once she is strong enough to come home, her modern mother follows the advice of an "expert" who espouses child-rearing on a strictly scientific basis. This is the question that Ellis Parker Butler explores in his humorous and insightful novel, The Incubator Baby.
