Go the F**k 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, it captures the familiar — and unspoken — tribulations of putting your little angel down for the night. Beautiful, subversive, and pants-wettingly funny, Go the F**k to Sleep is a book for parents new, old, and expectant. You probably should not read this for your children.

睡觉时间到了。爸爸为了哄孩子睡觉，开始给孩子读睡前故事。可事与愿违，孩子非但没睡着，反而更加有精神地上窜下跳，一点睡觉的意思都没有。爸爸疲惫不堪，却又无可奈何、无计可施，渐渐变得焦躁不安，直到濒临崩溃的边缘……作者将父母在哄孩子艰难入睡时的心态和神情惟妙惟肖地再现出来，语言则是结合了优美的韵文和直接的粗口，既颠覆又爆笑。字里行间表现了父母对孩子的慈爱之余，也有内心深藏的沮丧，让天下父母深深共鸣，并在笑声中压力尽去。
