"This is the most honest children's book ever written. And it's f*cking
hilarious."A.J. Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically
"Total genius."Jonathan Lethem, author of Motherless Brooklyn
Go the F*ck 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 off to dreamland. Honest, profane, and affectionate, Adam
Mansbach's verses and Ricardo Cort閟' illustrations perfectly capture the
familiarand unspokentribulati ons of putting your little angel down for the
night, and open up a conversation about parenting in the process. Beautiful
, subversive, and pants-wettingly funny, Go the F*ck to Sleep is a perfect
gift for parents new, old, or expectant. Here is a sample verse:
The cats nestle close to their kittens now.
The lambs have laid down with the sheep.
You're cozy and warm in your bed, my dear
Please go the f*ck to sleep.
Adam Mansbach's daughter Vivien is two and a half. His novels include The
End of the Jews, winner of the California Book Award, and the best-selling
Angry Black White Boy, a San Francisco Chronicle Best Book of 2005. His
fiction and essays have appeared in The New York Times Book Review, The
Boston Globe, Vibe, The Believer, Los Angeles Times, and elsewhere. He is
the 20102011 New Voices Professor of Fiction at Rutgers University. This is
his first children's book. You probably should not read it to actual
children, and if you do, he cannot be held legally responsible.
