Don't wake the baby!

Conversation in the shop today turned to the fun of reading children's books.  Who else has been known to read them aloud without a child present, just for the sheer joy of hearing the words roll off your tongue? Or for the wry humour that only an adult can read into the story?   And then there are the almost children's books, with a sting in the tail. Adam Mansbach is the author of one.Try it sometime ... but don't do as I did and wake the baby with your laughter!
