The best part? It's still funny. The rhythms, the plodding rhymes, the illustrations, the clever play on the overused trope of the world at bedtime -- they all work together to take <em>Seriously, Just Go to Sleep</em> beyond parody and into the realm where good children's books belong: things that parents, and children, can honestly come to from different places and enjoy together. I can imagine reading <em>Seriously, Go to Sleep</em> nightly, and even to the point where you're begging the child to choose something else (the ultimate compliment for a picture book) and yet still finding something to enjoy. It captures a different 'zeitgeist' of modern parenting."<br />--<em><strong>New York Times</strong></em></p><p>"From the team that touched off the irreverent humor trend <em>Go the F**k to Sleep</em>, author Adam Mansbach and illustrator Ricardo Cortes, comes a new kid-friendly version of their instant comic classic. <em>Seriously, Just Go to Sleep</em> brings children in on the joke, helping them understand their own tactics and why their parents just want them to go . . . to sleep."<br />--<em><strong>Publishers Weekly</strong></em></p><p>Critical success for the original <em>Go the F*** to Sleep</em>, a #1 best seller at: <em>New York Times</em>, Amazon.com, <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, <em>Publishers Weekly</em>, and many more!</p><p><em>Seriously, Just Go to Sleep</em> is the G-rated, traditional-sized, children's version of the book every parent has been talking about. <em>Go the F*** to Sleep,</em> the picture book for adults, became a cultural sensation by striking a universal chord for parents. Now, Adam Mansbach and Ricardo Cortés reunite with <em>Seriously, Just Go to Sleep,</em> inviting the children themselves in on the joke. As parents know, kids are well aware of how difficult they can be at bedtime. With Cortés's updated illustrations (including a cameo appearance by Samuel L. Jackson, who narrated the audio book version of <em>Go the F*** to Sleep</em>) and Mansbach's new child-appropriate narrative, the book allows kids to recognize their tactics, giggle at their own mischievousness, and empathize with their parents' struggles--a perspective most children's books don't capture. Most importantly, it provides a common ground for children and their parents to talk about one of the most stressful aspects of parenting.</p><p><em>Seriously, Just Go to Sleep</em> came to be when Mansbach read a highly censored rendition of the original book to his three-year-old daughter, and she recognized herself as the culprit and was delighted. "We were getting a lot of feedback from parents, saying that their kids loved the book--read in an altered form--because they recognized themselves in the character of the mischievous kid who's winning the bedtime battle, and thought it was hilarious. So we figured we’d do a companion volume that lets kids in on the fun."</p>9781617753497_Akashic Bookslibro_electonico_9781617753497_9781617753497Adam MansbachInglésMéxicohttps://kbget1-a.akamaihd.net/koboid-prod-public/ingram50-epub-e2c606f2-3345-47c0-baa6-334c6e07bb55.epub2014-09-11T00:00:00+00:00Akashic Books
