Blowin' in the Wind by Bob Dylan, illustrated by Jon J. Muth

[kellyrfineman]

True story: I was born in the sixties, and my parents were . . . well, not exactly hippies, but let's say they weren't super far off. My dad opposed the war in Vietnam, as so many others did, and, um, may have mixed with radicals. As one does, I suppose, in uncertain times

Thanks for this great review, Kelly. Just received my review copy too and will be posting about it soon. Muth's watercolors are gorgeous, are they not?

They really are. Sterling sent me the .pdf first, but it kept crashing for some reason. I was thrilled when the hardcover arrived so quickly in the mail - it really is a lovely bit of packaging, and Muth's illustrations are entirely swoon-worthy!

I was hoping you'd gotten tapped to review this one as well, knowing what a huge Dylan fan you are!!

I thought of Jama and Slatts as soon as I heard of this book. Not surprisingly, both of them commented here.

Thanks, Kelly

NOTE to SELF: Check it out.

Yep - I immediately thought of you and of Jama when I heard about it. And you'll appreciate the packaging on this book, I think, with the CD lodged inside the front cover.
