We found this beautiful book the other day, published in 2008 it is an interpretation of Bob Dylan’s song ‘Forever Young’ illustrated by the Californian artist Paul Rogers. Forever Young is from Dylan’s 1974 album Planet Waves. It bought a tear to the GR’s eye.

You can see a bit of the animated version here:

Book of the Week : Little Golden Books
























Not one but many.

Look at these adorable little classic books printed in the US and available from Random House. They have been around since 1942 and each one contains a wonderfully illustrated story. You can see from the covers how cute they are, I shall be collecting them for Erbie.
