My Fox Chicago delves into the new regulations set by the CPSIA 2008 on lead testing for toys. Besides giving information on how parents can check to see if the toy they plan to put under the Christmas tree is safe, they talk to Rick Woldenberg, Chairman, of Learning Resources. Woldenberg is concerned that the CPSIA has not made provision for handcrafters, artisans and small manufacturers of childrens items and the strict mandatory testing will put many out of business.

Bob Dylans first book for kids Forever Young available everywhere September 23, 2008! Since it first appeared on the 1974 album Planet Waves, “Forever Young” has been one of Bob Dylan’s most beloved songs. Its an anthem to youth, to doing the right thing, to cherishing the spirit of being young. And like so many of Dylans songs, it still moves people today. Re-imagined by award-winning illustrator Paul Rogers, the lyrics tell the story of a young boy who travels through his life, as well as Dylans many influences, living in the footsteps of the man who gave the world the greatest gift he had: his music. Forever Young is published by ginee seo books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing.

Here are the lyrics, Enjoy
Here we go,
Oncee upon a time not long ago,
when people wore pajamas and lived life slow,
When laws were stern and justice stood,
and people were behavin’ like they ought to good,
There lived a lil’ boy who was misled,
by anotha lil’ boy and this is what he said:
“Me & You, kid, we gonna make sum cash,
robbin’ old folks and makin’ da dash”,
They did the job, money came with ease,
but one couldn’t stop, it’s like he had a disease,
He robbed another and another and a sista and her
brotha,
tried to rob a man who was a D.T. undercover,
The cop grabbed his arm, he started acting erratic,
he said “Keep still, boy, no need for static”,
Punched him in his belly and he gave him a slap,
but little did he know the lil’ boy was strapped,
The kid pulled out a gun, he said “Why’d ya hit me?”,
the barrel was set straight for the cop’s kidney,
The cop got scared, the kid, he starts to figure,
“I’ll do years if I pull this trigga”,
So he cold dashed and ran around the block,
cop radioes it to another lady cop,
He ran by a tree, there he saw this sista,
a shot for the head, he shot back but he missed her,
Looked around good and from expectations,
so he decided he’d hit for the subway stations,
But she was coming and he made a left,
he was runnin’ top speed till he was outta breath,
Knocked an old man down and swore he killed him,(sorry)
then he made his move to an abandoned building,
Ran up the stairs up to the top floor,
opened up the door there, guess who he saw?,
Dave the dope fiend shootin’ dope,
who don’t know the meaning of water nor soap,
He said(I need bullets, hurry up, run)
the dope fiend brought back a spanking shotgun,
He went outside but there was cops all over,
then he dipped into a car, a stolen Nova,
Raced up the block doing 83,
crashed into a tree near university,
Escaped alive though the car was battered,
rat-a-tat-tatted and all the cops scattered,
Ran out of bullets and still had static,
grabbed a pregnant lady and pulled out the automatic,
Pointed at her head and he said the gun was full o’ lead,
he told the cops(Back off or honey here’s dead),
Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong,
so he let the lady go and he starts to run on,
Sirens sounded, he seemed astounded,
before long the lil’ boy got surrounded,
He dropped the gun, so went the glory,
and this is the way I have to end this story,
He was only seventeen, in a madman’s dream,
the cops shot the kid, I still hear him scream,
This ain’t funny so don’t ya dare laugh,
just another case about the wrong path,
Straight ‘n narrow or yo’ soul gets CAST.
Good Night.
Girl:oh boy, that uncle Ricky is really weird
I don’t know, what does he mean straight ‘n’ narrow or your soul gets cast?
I don’t know, I think he’ll be crackin’ it up for us,… Good night

Perhaps Terra was expecting The Great Gatsby or Catcher in the Rye? FYI, making fun of the Man in the Moons spelling and punctuation errors isn’t cool. Do you think they speak english on the moon? You are being racist. A space racist.
