"Space oddity" becomes a children's book

"Space oddity" becomes a children's book

"Space Oddity" - the iconic song by David Bowie featured in the "David Bowie" album released in 1969 - has become a children's book.

Illustrator Andrew Kolb, inspired by the lyrics, assembled a funny little book for the fun and enjoyment of little kids. This is how he presents it: "Have you ever listened to a song and your mind's eye is immediately filled with visuals? David Bowie's classic space epic is one such song for me. Every lyric paints such a vivid picture that I figured 'Oh hey, I guess I'll make that into a children's book!'. Yes, I talk like this".

No physical/paper version of the book has been published, so you'll have to download it (for free!). Click here to get the pdf file (it's 13.3 MB).
