1. A device to support objects on a user's lap, comprising: a base having a cushioned bottom surface;an articulated bi-fold support stand configured to support objects at a selected angle, the stand having first and second panels, each panel having a planar top surface; anda top having a planar working surface that lies in a plane and is mounted to the base, the top having a recess area in the working surface and a plurality of stops formed entirely across the recess, each stop having a first wall substantially orthogonal to the working surface and an angled wall that extends from a top of the first wall to a bottom of an adjacent first wall of an adjacent stop, each first wall of each stop having a height that extends to a distance below the working surface that leaves sufficient room for the support stand to lay flat within the recess with the respective planar top surfaces of the first and second panels in a coplanar relationship with each other and to be completely flat and entirely within the plane of the planar working surface of the top, wherein the articulated bi-fold support stand is attached to the top and configured to support objects at a selected angle relative to the planar working surface of the top, the first and second panels hingedly attached at respective first edges, the second panel having a second edge, and wherein the plurality of stops formed in the recess are structured to receive the second edge of the second panel and hold the stand at the selected angle. 2. The device of claim 1, comprising an expandable storage compartment formed in the base. 3. The device of claim 2, comprising an opening to the storage compartment formed on one side wall of the base and a pouch formed on another side wall of the base. 4. The device of claim 1, comprising a lip at or adjacent to a proximal edge of the top, the lip sized and shaped to retain objects on the top when the objects are supported by the stand or when the top is at an orientation that objects could slide off the top at the proximal edge of the top. 5. The device of claim 3, comprising a cover sized and shaped to enclose the device, the cover being attached to the base and structured to be stored in the pouch. 6. The device of claim 5, wherein the cover includes at least one strap structured to be used as a handle or shoulder strap. 7. The device of claim 1, comprising: a stuffed animal structured to attach to the base. 8. A portable lap desk, comprising: a base formed of cushioned material and having an internal storage compartment formed in the cushioned material that is accessible via at least one opening in the cushioned material;a rigid top attached to the base, the top having a planar working surface that lies in a plane and a recess formed in the working surface that includes a plurality of stops formed entirely across the recess the plurality of stops having a height that is lower than the planar working surface of the top to define a storage space; anda bi-fold stand attached by a hinge to the top and configured to cooperate with the plurality of stops to be deployed at a selected angle relative to the working surface, the bi-fold stand including first and second panels that each have a planar top surface, the first and second panels sized and shaped to be received in the storage space in the recess with the top surfaces of the first and second panels in a coplanar relationship with each other and to be completely flat and entirely within the plane of the planar working surface of the top, wherein the first panel has a first edge attached to the top with a hinge for pivotal movement, and an opposing second edge attached with a hinge attached to a first edge of the second panel and configured to enable pivotal movement of the second panel relative to the first panel, the second panel having a second edge configured to engage one stop of the plurality of stops. 9. The portable lap desk of claim 8, comprising a lip at or adjacent to a proximal edge of the top, the lip sized and shaped to retain objects on the working surface of the top when the objects are supported by the stand or when the working surface of the top is at an orientation that objects could slide off the working surface towards the proximal edge of the top. 10. The portable lap desk of claim 8, comprising a cover sized and shaped to enclose the device, the cover formed of flexible fabric and attached to the base. 11. The portable lap desk of claim 10, further comprising a pouch formed on the base and sized and shaped to receive the cover, and further wherein the cover includes at least one strap structured to be used as a handle or shoulder strap.
