Why I Like the Book:
A wonderful way to introduce children to Jamaican music and
culture. This song has a wonderful message that children need today. There are
so many obstacles today that make it hard for children to have a carefree,
stress-free life. But with the love, support and encouragement of family and
friends, nothing will keep them down forever.
