Such a fun book! The illustrations are great and an adventure of their own!

I was hoping more for this book. Lovely illustrations and the text is the lyrics to Dylan's song Forever Young. However, the focus of the story seems to be geared more towards adults then kids.

I actually don't know the song well enough to remember more than a fragment of the tune. I picked it up after seeing it at a bookstore because of the peace activism depicted in the illustrations, and I like reading books to my daughter books that sound like blessings right before she goes to sleep. Now I need to hunt down a recording of the song...

If you are a Dylan fan run out and get this book for a child in your life (or yourself) this is a great book! The illustrations are so much fun and do a great job of bringing Dylan's word to life. The back liner page even tells you about the illustrations on each page.

If you are not a Dylan fan the lyrics are still a great message for kids!

This is special. Each picture has such a high level of detail. Drawn with love. Every page made me smile.

Rogers illustrates Dylan's song with scenes of a young boy growing up in New York and becoming a musician. The illustrations also cleverly contain many references to the songwriter’s life and career which are partially explained in the Illustrator’s notes at the end of the book.
