Forever Young      >>>------------------> 
by Bob Dylan // Illustrations by Paul Rogers


One of my all time favorite Bob Dylan songs made it's way into a vibrant child's book that highlights all the great infamous Dylan traits and fables strewn by the very cool illustrations of Paul Rogers. This book is so cute I almost can't take it. I'm not sure the boys enjoy it quite as much as I do (yet) but figure the words of wisdom (which Dylan penned especially for his youngest son, Jacob, after he was born) might seep in and root themselves somewhere significant.

Here are the lyrics (just in case you aren't familiar)
It's great song. And a very neat book.


May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young
May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young
May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
May your song always be sung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young
