Reactions:
“Before I heard Samuel L. Jackson read this post-modern self-help book in his deep, authoritative, GOD-like voice, I had: restless leg syndrome, sleep apnoea, delayed sleep phase syndrome, parasomnias, night terrors, nocturia, caffeine induced insomnia and somniphobia. After listening to this self-help book, I turned over, told my leg to “chill out motherf–ker” and went the f–k to sleep.” – Darwin8u
“Any parent with a shred of a sense of humor will find this book to be a veritable hoot. Being narrated by Sam Jackson; priceless.” – FanB14
“I don’t think there could be a better narrator for this book, and Samuel L. Jackson does an excellent job!” – Michael
“I’m pretty sure that my Dad had these same thoughts running through his head when I was little and wanted that one last story, the last drink of water, one more trip to the potty. However, I hope to God that no little kid ever has to actually hear this. It’s funny for adults, but definitely should be R Rated. I got it because it was free. Free was worth it.” – Michelle
“Several people had recommended the book, and well, you can’t beat the price, so I had to download it, sync to my iPhone and play it through the home theater speakers with my wife… we were both laughing hard, and crying at the same time since it’s the same old story with our daughter!!! If you have a preschooler, and don’t mind occasional swearing, you must listen to this!!!” – Kirk Korpil
