Book Description

A picture book based on Ziggy Marley’s popular song celebrating music’s many forms, from the sounds of ocean waves to laughter in the family kitchen.

“Readers are encouraged to find the music in everything in this picture-book adaptation of Marley’s exuberant song . . . The illustration of the family’s large and small clapping hands in a spectrum of skin tones sends a powerful, uplifting message about the universality of music . . . Close your eyes, listen to the music, and experience the joy of family with this buoyant tale.” ―Kirkus Reviews

“Music Is in Everything”―a single on More Family Time, the follow-up children’s album to the GRAMMY Award-winning Family Time―celebrates how music is found in everything. From ocean waves to banging pots and pans in the kitchen, from a loved one’s laughter to the “river’s latest tune, ” Marley reminds children everywhere that you don’t need an instrument to create a beautiful song.

With heartfelt illustrations by Ag Jatkowska―illustrator of Marley’s debut picture book, I Love You TooMusic Is in Everything is a sweet and uplifting ode to the power and beauty of song.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

K-Gr 3—Get ready to bop your head along to this vibrantly illustrated book version of Ziggy Marley’s 2020 hit song of the same name. The illustrations, filled with children and families with a wide range of skin tones, natural hairstyles, and hair wraps, accompany words that fairly flow off of the page. These familiar lyrics go on to remind readers that music truly is in everything, in nature and in how we explore our senses: trees dancing in the wind, raindrops on the ground, laughter of a friend, and the banging of pots in the kitchen. It’s a wonderful read-aloud, intended to be accompanied by rice shakers, for which there are instructions. VERDICT Some songs do not make the transition to picture books; this one elevates the form. A beautiful addition to any library.—Katherine Forsman
