<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Michael Dustin Youree spent nine years calling various neighborhoods of New York City home. Seven more, he couch-surfed around the world, embracing a nomadic life for the sake of his unquenchable curiosity and desire to expand his world view. These stories and songs are treasures unearthed in the laughter and lesions. Snoozing Suzy and the Stew is a moment of whimsy through a broken hear t left in Amsterdam. Lullaby is a loving embrace for his young niece and goddaughter across the distance between them. Allegory of the Maze is a pledge to live in the moment and appreciate beauty even in difficulty. O Captain is a reminder that the glory of living is not found in sitting lazily on the beach. A Fable of Sun and Moon is a wrestling match with infatuation found in a Spanish summer. Forever Young is the acknowledgement that we human beings never grow old in the context of an infinite universe. Allegory of the Caveman is Youree's constant thirst for knowledge and grappling with all that he cannot understand. O Captain (Part 2) is a contemplation on the fears we find in dark, foreign places. And, finally, Wily Johnny's Journey to Space is a playful treatise on what it means to be an adventurer. Youree calls it: Ballads and Bedtime Stories, a collection of song lyrics and short stories that one might keep on the nightstand"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Ballads and Bedtime Stories</em>--a collection of song lyrics and short stories you might keep on your nightstand.</p><p>Standing on the shoulders of giants like Aesop and Dr. Seuss, Michael Dustin Youree seeks to shine a light <em>Where the Sidewalk Ends</em> and bring <em>The Velveteen Rabbit </em>to life.</p><p>With these poems and tales, he hopes to inspire the Charlie and Alice in all of us, as we taste the chocolates of wonder.
