# The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy): A Children's Picture Book - Hardcover

by **Keith Henry Brown** (Author), **Paul Simon** (Author)

_"Slow down, you move too fast_

_You got to make the mornin' last_

_Just kicking down the cobblestones_

_Lookin' for fun and feelin' groovy . . ."_

_The 59th Street Bridge Song_ is a lively picture book based on legendary songwriter Paul Simon's classic hit, created when he was one half of the folk rock duo Simon & Garfunkel. The song first appeared on their 1966 album _Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme_. In the US, the album peaked at #4 on _Billboard's_ weekly Top 200 albums chart, and eventually went on to sell over three million copies in the US.

With song lyrics by Simon and illustrations by Keith Henry Brown, this picture book follows a rabbit cycling through town, going about his day, and pausing to admire the "groovy" and lovable aspects of his surroundings. _The 59th Street Bridge Song_ provides parents a perfect vehicle to teach kids an appreciation of life's little gifts.
