You Have to F**king Eat: The Long-Awaited Sequel to Go the F**K to Sleep

By Claire Daniel 

YouHavetoFuckingEatExciting news for exhausted, frustrated parents everywhere (and those looking to gift them this holiday season):

From the author of the international best seller Go the F**k to Sleep, comes the natural and long-awaited sequel, You Have to F**king Eat

For this release (on-sale November 12), Adam Mansbach is once again teaming up with Brooklyn-based independent publisher Akashic Books—but with a new illustrator: Owen Brozman, whose art has appeared in Scholastic, Time Out New York, and National Geographic. 

Says the author:

There’s been plenty of enthusiasm for a sequel over the years (and plenty of suggestions!) but I always said I’d only do one if it rang true to me—if I felt like I could imbue it with the same kind of honesty, love, and frustration as the first book. And eating is the other universal source of parental anxiety, a battle of wills just as pitched as sleep can be. From my own experiences and plenty of conversations with other parents, it seemed like a topic folks could use a laugh and a bit of catharsis about.

Here’s a peek at what’s inside:
