If you are a parent, if you have children who often make you stay up because it is difficult to get them to sleep. So this book is very worthy of being one of your collection at home. I guarantee these books will make you laugh, and tasks to make kids to sleep does not seem troublesome anymore.
Go the Fuck 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.
