Breathe Owl Breathe’s The Listeners/These Train Tracks: A Fresh Take On Children’s Books

Last week this amazing book meets music experience was released by the band Breathe Owl Breathe called The Listeners/These Train Tracks. What makes this book so beautiful, intriguing and fun is that it’s two books in one (you flip over the book to start the second story), the illustrations are made with copper block prints, and there is <good> music on a 7″ vinyl to accompany the stories! (The music label RAD has been creating records, skateboards and tees since 2007.)

The mastermind behind the project, artist/musician Micah Middaugh, has been writing children’s books for years and has spent nearly three years working on this project. Amazing piece of functional art, wouldn’t you say? This is a rad gift for the holidays!

To see more of the book, check out this video on YouTube and the ebook here. To buy a copy, visit here.
