Go the F**k to Sleep (Adam Mansbach)

Forgive me, friends, for I have sinned.

I did not actually read Go the F**k to Sleep.  I listened to it on Audible.  And you should, too.  Especially if you have children.

My bestie, Michele, told me about this book yesterday when I told her that I had just returned from the "Everything Must Go" sale at my local Borders and was mourning the loss of print media (which is somewhat ironic because of my Kindle dependency, but distressing nonetheless).  Michele said that one of her fellow teachers found this book at a Chicago-area Borders (also closing) and purchased it as part of a baby shower gift.  Until I heard Samuel L. Jackson reading it aloud, I thought it would be some kind of Life of Pi for tots type of thing.  So wrong.  So incredibly wrong.

In somewhat related news, two of my friends are currently expecting.  Nothing says "Welcome to the world" like a darling Calvin Klein onesie and a copy of Go the F**k to Sleep.  So guess what, ladies?    :)

Here is the link to the read-aloud.  Enjoy!  And turn down your volume.  Trust me.
