Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yeah, I've seen the released version, and that won't work for me. Sadly, the in-universe book might, but does not seem to exist.

Our bedtime go-to for years was Ten, Nine, Eight by Molly Bang. Pajama Time by Sandra Boynton is great too.

Because books.
We loved Moo, Baa, La La La and pretty much anything by Sandra Boynton.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Thanks for the recs. I'm working on trying to create a sleep routine that won't always be built around The Boob, so thinking of having one particular book, and Go the Fuck to Sleep won't work once kiddo has some language.

Some excellent recs (I LOVE Goodnight Gorilla and Jamberry especially), to which I'd add Brown Bear Brown Bear what do you see which I read out loud nightly from about four months.
