Description

Another wickedly funny bedtime story for grown-ups from the bestselling author of Go The F**k to Sleep. Adam Mansbach famously gave voice to two of parenting's primal struggles in Go the F**k to Sleep and You Have to F**king Eat-the unrivalled pair of New York Times best sellers that ushered in a new era of radical honesty in humour books for parents. But what could possibly be left Parents-new, old, expectant-of multiple children already knew the answer and Adam discovered it for himself by having two more kids, less than two years apart. F**k, Now There Are Two of You is a loving monologue about the new addition to the family, addressed to a big sibling and shot through with Adam's trademark profane truth-telling. Gorgeously illustrated and full of unspoken sentiments channelled directly from the brains of parents worldwide, F**k, Now There Are Two of You articulates all the fears and frustrations attendant to the simple, maths-defying fact that two is a million more kids than one. As you probably know by now, you shouldn't read it to a child.

Reviews

Adam Mansbach has turned his trademark humour and profanity to the exhausting truth of adding to your family. * Essential Baby *
Funny, silly and relatable. * Big Issue *
Every bit as profane as its predecessors. * West Weekend *
Clever, funny and cathartic, parents and babysitters alike will love it. * Big Issue (on 'Go the F**k to Sleep') *
Filled with the same humour and exasperation as the first, this book will have you snickering. * Practical Parenting (on 'Seriously, Just Go to Sleep') *
