“Here's a little song i wrote,

you might want to sing it note for note,

don't worry, be happy

in every life we have some trouble,when you worry you make it double

don't worry, be happy” By: Bob Marley

This song relates to my books because Jack,the main character, stands up for himself. For example, when he gets bullied, he runs away or rides away on his skateboard.
