Crinkleroot author draws on Dylan in new book

by Diane Strickland

SOUTH RYEGATE—Local author and illustrator Jim Arnosky has created more than 115 books for children, but perhaps one of the most special for him will be published this month. Man Gave Names to All the Animals is a song by Bob Dylan from his 1979 album Slow Train Coming. The song always has been a favorite of Arnosky’s with its whimsical descriptions of animals creating fanciful images he could visualize in a book. Now, Arnosky’s adaptation of Dylan’s lyrics has become a reality, with illustrations featuring over 170 animals.
