Product Description
Since it first appeared on the 1974 album Planet Waves, "Forever Young" has been one of Bob Dylan's most beloved songs. Now award-winning artist Paul Rogers gives us a new interpretation of the lyrics. With images inspired by classic Dylan songs and pieces of his life, this is a bold and touching tribute to an anthem whose message will always stay forever young.

This was a Christmas gift for my 2 1/2 month old grandson, who's father is a die hard Bob Dylan fan!! It was a hit with my son who will pass on his love for Dylan's music to my grandson. I was a very happy mom and grandmother!
Beautiful Illustrations and Message for young children December 17, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
My 3 children are HUGE Beatles fans. I admit that I first bought the book because there is an illustration of the "Meet the Beatles" album on one of the pages. After really sitting down and reading the book, I am so thrilled to share it with my boys. The illustrations are stunning and hopefully will be inspiring to them as young artists! The message in the song lyrics is perfect. If you are looking for a message of peace and inspiration to give your children, this is it!

I can add this cartoon book to my Bob Dylan bowling ball and BD tie clasp. I now see Whole Foods has BD lettuce. Hey everybody, get a piece of Bob while he's alive and cash in. BTW - I'm selling my Bob Dylan potato chip on ebay. Let the bidding begin.
Surprising and endearing look at Bob Dylan November 26, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As pretty big Dylan fan, I admit I was not aware of this book, but then one day recently I saw this in my local library and of course picked it up immediately. The book was in the kids section of the library, I might add, and I only happen to see it by chance, walking by (my kids are grown and out of the house). I was quite intrigued.
"Forever Young" (40 pages) brings in essence 15 large illustrations (each spread over 2 pages) that illustrate certain aspects of Bob Dylan's life and songs, and it is a delight to look at. The book is obviously intended for young kids, to be read along with their parents, and to be introduced to the world (or at least certain aspects) that Dylan experienced in the early years. But for us adults, this book becomes a "Where's Walda" in a way, in that the illustrations contain a lot of "clues" as to Dylan songs and the sixties and seventies era. Illustrator Paul Rogers was kind enough to provide a summary guide of sorts at the end, explaining the illustrations, but emphasizing that he didn't explain all the clues, and to look for more in the illustrations. Nicely done.
In all, this is a welcome addition to the wealth of Bob Dylan books out there, in a very surprising and endearing kind of way. Highly recommended for adults and younger ones alike!
Bob Dylan's Forever Young November 24, 2008

This kids book, written by Dylan (ie the song Forever Young) and illustrated by Paul Rodgers is a delight. Then illustrations evoke characters and events in Dylan's life at the time he wrote the song, and the reading of the song along with these illustrations surely will bring a tear to the eye of the Dylan fan reading this to the significant child in their life. And, a great introduction to Dylan for that kid in your life, too.
