Does Bob Dylan actually sleep? Somehow between relentless touring, playing DJ on XM and winning a Pulitzer the legendary singer/songwriter managed to find some time to crank out a children’s book based on the lyrics to his classic song from Planet Waves, Forever Young.
Here’s some info (via Uncut)…
Bob Dylan‘s song lyrics for 1974 hit “Forever Young” have been re-imagined into children’s story book called “Forever Young”, due to be published in October.
The illustrated lyrics are a “heart warming and meaningful story about the importance of doing good” according to the Simon and Schuster publishers’ press release.
The synopsis is referenced as: “May you build a ladder to the stars/ And climb on every rung/ May you stay forever young.”
The 40 page picture book is illustrated by award-winning artist Paul Rogers and is aimed at children aged three and over.
Publication date is set for October 6, 2008.
We’re holding out for the Rainy Day Women #12 & #35 illustrated book.
