…and it becomes a huge success simply because.

“Go The (Bleep) To Sleep” is no exception. Just released, this picture and rhyme book is most certainly for parents, and not for their children. Heaven help the early reader that get his or her little paws on this. Here’s a sample verse:

“The cats nestle close to their kittens. The lambs have laid down with the sheep. You’re cozy and warm in your bed, my dear. Please go the f— to sleep.”

Offensive? Yes. Brilliant? Oh hell yes! What parent — at their most frustrated — hasn’t muttered the same exact words to themselves in an attempt to get their little one into bed and on their way to dreamland? I’m sure my parents did at some point, and I’m sure your parents have as well, dear reader. Trust me…

So, for all you moms and dads out there, author Adam Mansbach has brought you this little gem to make you laugh. Just make sure you hide this on a very high shelf…
