Childrens Bedtime Nightmares Collection

The complete first story, "Evie", can be found on the Amazon listing for Bedtime Stories for Children You Hate. Antoinette Bergin's collection includes fear-inducing titles such as Evie Will Fluffy Live Forever?, Your Upstairs Neighbor Kills People, and Kevin's First (And Last) Trip to the Zoo, among others. This book rejects fairy princesses, cute animals, and happy endings in favor of presenting a harsh reality to today's youth. While Bergin beat me to the punch with her tales for mischievous kids, I'll just have to add her book to my collection until I write my own version in the future.

The first story, "Evie", is included in full in the Bedtime Stories for Children You Hate 's Amazon listing. Check out Bergin's fear-of-God-instilling story titles: Evie Will Fluffy Live Forever? Your Upstairs Neighbor Kills People Kevin's First (And Last) Trip to the Zoo I Said Not to Touch That First Love Pretty, Pretty Petal I Thought We Were Camping Blood in the Sink No, It Isn't Just the Wind Bedtime Stories for Children You Hate puts the kibosh on fairy princesses, friendly animals, cutesy morals, and most definitely happily ever afters, instead hauling out exactly what I believe the spoiled, narcissistic representatives of today's youth need more of: a harsh dose of reality. As it stands, Antoinette Bergin got to the hell tales for little hellions (Oh! Oh! Dibs on that one!) before I did, so I guess I'll just add her book to my collection--right between Shit Happens So Get Over It and The Very Best Totally Wrong Test Answers --until I write my own version down the line. If I wrote a book, Bedtime Stories for Children You Hate is exactly what I'd call it. Well, that or Yeah, You're a Pedestrian and Technically Have the Right of Way, but If You March into the Street All Self-Entitled Without Making Sure I See You First and Am Going to Stop, When I Hit You I Might Get an Enormous Ticket but You're Going to Get Dead. It's a terrific read, but also a little bittersweet for me because now in addition to wishing I'd come up with the book's title, I also wish I'd written the book's contents.
