Do you all have any recommendations of books that would fit the bill?
Crime and Punishment.
No, wait, I mean Where the Wild Things Are.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.
Jenny ,'Bring On The Night'
Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Trust my rage
Crime and Punishment.
Neither DH nor the baby would ever forgive me.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses. Margaret Wise Brown's A Child's Good Night Book and A Child's Good Morning Book.
(Also, I just went to her website - she was so pretty! I never knew!)

Because books.
Timelies everyone.
Oh, Nonian, that's such a good idea! Goodnight Moon and Where the Wild Things Are are perfect choices. Some others mine have all loved are:
Sandra Boynton's The Bedtime Book and Moo Baa LaLaLa
The Runaway Bunny
Dinosaur Roar by Paul and Henrietta Stickland
any Dr. Seuss, but particularly The Foot Book, Mr. Brown Can Moo and The Shape of Me and Other Things
Also, there's Make Way for Ducklings and Are You My Mother?, just to start. So many good books to choose from.
Last, one of my kids' favorites was Sheep, Sheep, Sheep, Help Me Fall Asleep by Arlene Alda, but it might be out of print.
Skipped madly. Much ~ma to all who need it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hmm.
That was precisely my thought.
I'm so glad people (you know who you are) posted more uncomfortable links than mine. Though that feathered butt plug was alien in its beauty.
How about a succession of nursery rhymes, Nonian?

Thrive to spite them
Do you all have any recommendations of books that would fit the bill?
Guiess How Much I love You, Winnie the Pooh, a book of nursery rhymes and other poetry, Dr. Suess, Owl Moon, Dr. Suess, Madeline, Olivia, Lyle, Lyle the Crocodile, actually I could go on for awhile.
And any books that were your favorite when you were little.

Mostly lurking...
My deviled egg filling is a little lumpy. I used the hand mixer, but it's still lumpy. I'm frustrated.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That was precisely my thought.
And if I bought it, you would have someone to blame it on.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am all about the blame of other people.

Ooh, they have others too. (not really work safe) [link] I think the one with the cape is kind of cute. I wonder if you can get one sans vibrator?
