Listen to Bryan Cranston Narrate ‘You Have to F*cking Eat,’ a Kids Book for Adults

When LeVar Burton read the “Go the Fuck to Sleep,” a kids-themed book for adults, the Internet broke. Adam Mansbach, the author of the book, now has another follow-up to his 2011 hit entitled “You Have to Fucking Eat” and it looks like he snagged another big name to narrate it.

Readers may remember Bryan Cranston from the popular Fox sitcom Malcolm in the Middle. Cranston has since made a few guest appearances on other shows, though we feel like we’ve might have left out a career highlight for the talented actor.

The book, like its predecessor, utilizes some colorful language to encourage children eat their meals.

Cranston joins the high-caliber selection of actors asked to narrate the Mansbach books. Along with Burton, Cranston’s colleagues include Morgan Freeman and Samuel L. Jackson.

Check out a brief preview of the audiobook which is also available for a free download through the next month.
