Adam Mansbach is the author of the new profane children’s book.
Two veterans of Broadway's 2013-2014 season have lent their voices to a new dirty children's book called You Have to F**king Eat, a sequel to the popular Go the F**k to Sleep by author Adam Mansbach.
Bryan Cranston, a Tony winner for his performance as Lyndon Johnson in All the Way, and Stephen Fry, a Tony nominee for his work as Malvolio in Twelfth Night, both provide the narration for versions of the audiobook, which drops via Audible on November 12. The difference is that Cranston's version is free, while Fry's costs a measly $3.46.
Cranston and Fry follow in the footsteps of fellow Broadway vet Samuel L. Jackson, who read the audio version of Mansbach's best seller Go the F**k to Sleep, which was released in 2011. That book follows a parent's quest to get his child to go to bed. This one involves a similar parent's desire to get his child to, well, eat.
The hardcopy of You Have to F**king Eat is illustrated by Owen Brozman.
