Horrible Stories My Dad Told Me by David Downie, with English (British and American) audio and text
My Dad likes to tell me stories. Horrible stories. I don’t think that he means to tell me horrible stories, but he does. They often start out nicely and sound wonderful, but they always end in a way that is horrible for at least one of the people in them. Once you’ve heard Dad’s stories, other stories will bore you to tears. Because Dad’s stories are the best. Even if they are horrible.
