About this ebook

Hilarious and relatable, this collection of cartoons from New York Times bestselling author Lucy Knisley captures the joys and challenges of new motherhood.

In her graphic memoir Kid Gloves, Lucy Knisley chronicled her journey through pregnancy.

From sleepless nights to diaper changes, breastfeeding to babywearing, Knisley's charming illustrations and frank storytelling style make this a must-read for expecting parents, new moms and dads, or anyone who appreciates funny, slice-of-life comics. The perfect baby shower present or Mother's Day gift, Go to Sleep (I Miss You) is a delightful and honest celebration of the transformative first months with a new baby.

I have followed Lucy's work since she was recommended to me when I was pregnant and was so excited when she announced this book as it was exactly how I was feeling with my own son at the time. Now he's a toddler this book has really allowed me to relive and reminisce about the highs and lows of those first 12 months in a beautifully relatable way.
