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 off to dreamland. Profane, affectionate and refreshingly honest, it captures the familiar and unspoken tribulations of putting your child to bed for the night.
Hilariously funny, this is a breath of fresh air for parents new, old and expectant*.
(*You should probably not read this to your children.)

"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, father of three)
"Finally, someone tells it like it really is. This is no-guilt funny and a godsend!" (Cristina García, author of THE LADY MATADOR'S HOTEL, mother of one)
"An instantly recognisable and timeless theme tune for bleary-eyed parents everywhere - a hymn to the horrors of bedtime. Beautifully crafted, rhythmical, affectionate, profane and searingly honest, it is very funny." (Alex Frean)
"Hilariously funny, it gets the tone bang on - and it's comforting to know bedtime is a universally fraught experience."
"A gleeful howl of blasphemy.. for the exhausted parent, nudged to the brink of sanity by lack of sleep, GTFTS is more than a reason to snigger - it's a gesture of compassion." (Benjamin Secher)
