Get Up, Stand Up adapted by Cedella Marley and John Jay Cabuay - OPTIONAL

Get Up, Stand Up: Based on the song by Bob Marley adapted by Cedella Marley, illustrated by John Jay Cabuay.
BOARD BOOK Chronicle/Blue Apple, 2023. $8. 9781797219424 

BUYING ADVISORY: PRE-K - OPTIONAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

The kids should stand up for what's right, despite what others say. Be true to themselves and be a friend. Stand up for their rights. 

I think the parents will appreciate this more than the child, and it's really just the chorus of Marley's song as the text, with new verses written by his daughter Cedella. I really liked the message: to be kind. Cabual's illustrations are colorful, with multicultural kids!
