Ok so this is a book out there that has induced some heated discussion so I thought let's check it out. In case you have not read the book I love the you tube narration of the book done by Samuel Jackson...
OUR THOUGHTS~ At first I was like HOLY COW this book is VULGAR, and you know what it is. It is filled with expletives but you know what. That is the point. Honestly I don't think it is a book I would read to my kids but it is a book I enjoyed hearing and realizing that no I am not a bad parent at 3 am when my kid has yet to go to sleep and all I can do is keep from crying while hearing these exact same phrases in the book run through my head.
It is nice to show no you are not alone there are days that kids just are not tired or they are over tired and just can't shut down which leads a very tired you to deal with the bouncing bundle of joy. Yes this is NORMAL.. But because of the polarization around this book I thought I would check it out and also open up a little discussion on here.
So readers:
Please leave a comment below about what you thought about the book. What do you think?? There is no wrong answer but I sure would love to hear other peoples thoughts!!
Mike and I had a lot of friends and family forward us links to this book, because our kids have not always been the best sleepers. I actually haven't read it yet. It is nice to know that I am not alone.
