Forever Young - Bob Dylan for children.....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hc-a1kP7ITA

Bob Dylans first book for kids Forever Young available everywhere September 23, 2008! Since it first appeared on the 1974 album Planet Waves, "Forever Young" has been one of Bob Dylan's most beloved songs. Its an anthem to youth, to doing the right thing, to cherishing the spirit of being young. And like so many of Dylans songs, it still moves people today. Re-imagined by award-winning illustrator Paul Rogers, the lyrics tell the story of a young boy who travels through his life, as well as Dylans many influences, living in the footsteps of the man who gave the world the greatest gift he had: his music. Forever Young is published by ginee seo books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing.

I just found this....
I always give books for gifts to children...
I'm getting this book for myself, too.
:loveya:

peace~

1. May you grow up to be righteous
Hi,
Thanks for posting this, I hadn't heard of it yet. I'll most likely buy the book myself. One of his most beautiful and inspiring songs.

Peace

3. "Forever Young" is one of two songs that my dad has chosen for his funeral.
He has a few months left, and I consider this song (which we grew up hearing) his gift to everyone dad loves.

6. Heidi....
I'm so very sorry...I didn't realize that you only have a short time left with your beloved father:hug:
My father died suddenly, and he acted like he never planned on dying...
It is indeed a wonderful song ...I've never heard of anyone choosing that song for a funeral, a beautiful man he must be.

peace, love and light to you and your family~
