FIRST SENTENCE: The cats nestle close to their kittens, the lambs have laid down to sleep.

SUMMARY: [From Amazon.com] 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, 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.

THOUGHTS: Cutely sarcastic. It was a nice way to kill 10  minutes in a Borders before the midnight release of Harry Potter.

RATING: 6/10 [Good]
