About this product

Product Information

Go the F**k to Sleep is a bedtime book for parents who live in the real world, where a few snoozing kitties and cutesy rhymes don't always send a toddler sailing blissfully off to dreamland. Profane, affectionate, and radically honest, California Book Award-winning author Adam Mansbach's verses perfectly capture the familiar-and unspoken-tribulations of putting your little angel down for the night. In the process, they open up a conversation about parenting, granting us permission to admit our frustrations, and laugh at their absurdity. With illustrations by Ricardo Cortes, Go the F**k to Sleep is beautiful, subversive and pants-wettingly funny-a book for parents new, old and expectant. You probably should not read it to your children.

  • Not appropriate for everyone!

    As parents, this book spells it out in black and white exactly what we think when our children refuse to go to sleep! We may not speak the word, but it definitely is running thru our heads. I purchased this book for some soon to be first time grandparents, we had many a laugh as we read it together. If your not too precious about the "F" word then I highly recommend!

  • Absolute rubbish

    I bought this for my friends new born (2-3 days old) and it turns out she can't read it and so far has only drooled on the pictures, what a complete waste of time, would not recommend this for newborns at all..

  • Satisfying for the Adult to Read

    It's so frustrating trying to get a small child to sleep. This book releases some of that frustration and can be read with a soft voice to a child too small to understand the words.

  • Interesting book

    If it were not for the swear word, it would be a great book both novel and illustrated. Our child is only 9 months but when he gets to about 6ish I'm worried ;)
