The singer reads ‘Music is in Everything’ by Ziggy Marley, an uplifting ode to the power and beauty of song.
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. Illustrations are by Ag Jatkowska.
Zayn says: “I chose this book because I love Bob Marley, and because music and reading are both important to me as a parent. I sing to my daughter at night-time when she goes to sleep and I read to her at bedtime too. I feel like this will be something really cool to show her, so I’m up for reading a CBeebies Bedtime Story!”
Zayn follows in the footsteps of world-famous musicians including Dave Grohl, Dolly Parton, Christine and the Queens, Sir Elton John, Ed Sheeran and Gregory Porter.
CBeebies Bedtime Story is on each weekday at 6.50pm on CBeebies and BBC iPlayer, bringing families together as little ones settle down at the end of the day.
Zayn Malik’s story is on Wednesday 22 May.
