Samuel L. Jackson reads the "Go the F*** to Sleep" book
After reading the encyclopedia of bedtime stories, singing four rounds of Twinkle Twinkle, and then providing my kids with snuggles, kisses, and several glasses of water, I go from sweetly shushing to sleep to bribing and begging them through gritted teeth and eyes rolled back in my head that silently say "Go to sleep already!" Except usually with a few expletives involved. Apparently I'm not the only one. The awesome new bedtime book "Go the F*** to Sleep," which is for us parents, not kids, obviously, will have you nodding your head--that is if you can control it while you're laughing hysterically. Well now it just got a whole lot better because you can download it as the Go the F***to Sleep audio book read by none other than Samuel L. Jackson. I couldn't have conjured up a better choice myself. If the book was funny on its own, it's now wet-your-pants hilarious, and a little safer than having the book itself lying around your house for nosy little kids to find. Be warned, there is obviously language here that is not appropriate for children--or you, if you're not into that sort of thing. But I dare you not to laugh at Samuel L. Jackson reading, "Hell no, you may not have another glass of water." That's a little bit of genius right there. -Kristen You can download Go the F*** to Sleep audio book at Audible.com and purchase the actual book at our affiliate Amazon.com
