This is kind of cool: a children’s book of David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” drawn by ace illustrator Andrew Kolb. There’s no hard copy yet, but you can download the pdf.

“Space Oddity” is a song that has a special appeal to children and I say this with confidence because it was the first 45 RPM record that I bought myself. The not-so-happy-ending (where the astronaut loses contact with Earth) might be a bit distressing for the young’ns, though…
