A propos de cet article
Description :
signed by both the author and the illustrator; signature obtained in person; a bedtime book for parents - profane and honest. N° de réf. du vendeur 1869
Synopsis :
One of Reader's Digest's "25 Funniest Books of All Time"
"Nothing has driven home a certain truth about my generation, which is approaching the apex of its childbearing years, quite like this." --New Yorker
"A parenting zeitgeist" --Washington Post
"A hilarious take on that age-old problem: getting the beloved child to go to sleep." --National Public Radio
"A new Bible for weary parents" --New York Times
"Resonates powerfully with almost everyone" --Boston Globe
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.
With illustrations by Ricardo Cortés, Go the Fuck to Sleep is beautiful, subversive, and pants-wittingly funny--a book for parents new, old, and expectant. You probably should not read it to your children.

Etat : Near fine. Ricardo Cortés (illustrateur). First printing. Doubly-signed first edition of this wildly popular bedtime story parody for long-suffering parents. A sort of GOODNIGHT MOON for fed-up parents, GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP was the accidental beneficiary of a viral marketing campaign when a PDF of the book that was sent in advance to booksellers was leaked and circulated online. This copy signed by both author and illustrator. 6.25'' x 8.25''. Original color pictorial boards. Black endpapers. Illustrated throughout in color. (32) pages. Signed by Mansbach and Cortés on half-title. Trace rubbing. Sharp. N° de réf. du vendeur 53861
