Where can I find video or an mp3 of Christopher Walken reading Goodnight Moon?

I'd love to find video or an mp3 of Christopher Walken reading the children's book Goodnight Moon. The trouble is, I don't know if he ever did. On the Simpsons an actor (Jay Mohr) voiced Christopher Walken reading the story, but I have a recollection of seeing another video of him reading it. Am I crazy - can you help me?

I have a feeling you are recalling the same thing, twice. If Walken really had done a publicly available reading of Goodnight, Moon, the Simpsons bit wouldn't have been so funny. I'm sure Walken is a lovely guy in person, and that he read the book to his kids and grandkids, but I doubt you'll find what you're looking for.

He did read The Three Little Pigs.

@ubiquity Thanks - I think you're right than no recording exists. @yellowbinder pointed out the Three Little Pigs video and it's likely I combined the two in my memory. Oh well! Appreciate all your help!

Christopher Walken reads Where the Wild Things Are. It's fake, though.
