Synopsis:
Respect is a children's picture book based on lyrics written and originally recorded by Otis Redding in 1965. Aretha Franklin's iconic rendition of the song later peaked at #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 in 1967. Redding's lyrics continue to resonate with listeners today. With lyrics by Otis Redding and illustrations by Rachel Moss, this picture book tells the story of a confident young girl (and her enthusiastic puppy) conjuring as many futures as she can dream up. She is the superhero of her story and knows that the possibilities are infinite! Packed with playful scenes of imaginary scenarios with friends, Respect is sure to leave parents and especially their young girls feeling empowered and excited about what tomorrow has in store.
