Synopsis
As any loving parent knows, there are few things more rewarding in life than when at the end of a fun-filled day, a child goes quickly and quietly to sleep.
And as any loving parent knows, this doesn't always happen.
In a hilarious subversion of a children's book, GO THE F*** TO SLEEP recounts the emotional journey of a parent passing from hope, to reasoning, pleading, frustration on to remorse, guilt and, finally exhaustion as they try to get the child to fall asleep before they do.
Definitely not a book to read to your child, it will resonate with anyone who has ever spent twenty minutes, forty minutes, four hours reading 'just one more bedtime story'.
