Go to Sleep (I Miss You) Cartoons from the Fog of New Parenthood
Lucy Knisley is one of the great memoirists of the graphic novel format. Following the completion of her pregnancy memoir KID GLOVES (and the birth of her baby), Lucy embarked on a new project: documenting new motherhood in short, spontaneous little cartoons, which she posted on her Instagram, and which quickly gained her a huge cult following among other moms. The best of those wildly popular little cartoons are collected in this adorable gift book, a perfect read for expecting parents, new parents, and anyone who loves funny, relatable comics storytelling.

Go to Sleep (I Miss You) by Lucy Knisley is the follow up to Kid Gloves: Nine Months of Careful Chaos (2019). While it's another memoir, this one is more of a single panel comic interspersed with some sketches. The change in the art is part of the message: being a mother of a baby is physically and mentally draining. http://pussreboots.com/blog/2020/comm...
