"Go the F**k to Sleep" by Adam Mansbach (Author) and Ricardo Cortes (Illustrator)
A colleague forwarded me a link to a new bedtime book that will be released just before the birth of my son, MacLaren.
Go the F**k to Sleep is a children’s bedtime book for adults by Adam Mansbach (Author) and Ricardo Cortes (Illustrator).
I guarantee that I’ll get a copy because I love biting humor, and because every honest parent will admit that he or she has thought this expression in his/her mind (if not muttered it under their breath) at some point during child rearing.

I’ve pre-ordered that book for my wife. Doesn’t come out until October though…. Looks AWESOME…
Ah genius. My youngest sibling is 20 now and I’m sure my Dad would still like this :-)
“…every honest parent will admit that he or she has thought this expression in his/her mind (if not muttered it under their breath) at some point during child rearing.”
Indeed. Even my niece who is co-pastor with her huband of a church in Waukegan. Her comment, given their 1 year old daughter, was “I may have said that recently/regularly.”
Then there was the time when my then wife and I tied our 2 year old son’s door shut so we could at least keep him in his room and we might get some sleep. Marc is now almost 33. It still amuses us t remind him.
Love it when we get books with symbols instead of swearing in the title.
It’s gold, Jerry, gold!
