Speak Up!

A little girl that loves books and spends lots of time at her library until she is devastated by the news that the library has to shut down. She decided to SPEAK UP to try and save the library inspiring friends, family and strangers to help her. Recommended for children from Reception - Year 2.

I like it because the people were nice

Engaging picture book about using your voice to speak up about the things you care about.

An inspiring read for young children to speak up about what matters and help out in their local community.

I liked it because it was about the library and how important books ages. They are so nice I want to read more and more every day.

Rocket (main character) is a highly inspirational figure, who illustrates the positive impact just one person can have in their community when they have the courage to stand up and be counted.

I would recommend this book for a Key Stage 2 class, using it as a basis to discuss ideas of how we can improve our local community and have our voices heard.

Rocket loves books! When she hears the local library is set to close she SPEAKS UP!
Very apt for the children in our school who are also do this exact thing and are trying to save our local library.

A great message delivered in a bright , clever way

I really enjoyed this book. I think it is inspiring to young readers, encouraging them to speak up for what they care about. Rocket is a great role model for young children and I think this book should be read to 5 and 6 year olds. It is also beautifully illustrated.

I liked the look up book and it was the same character .

Rocket is cool

I like how rocket saves the library and gets a letter from Noah

This book was awesome. Its all about a boy who loves his local library because he reads lots and lots of books, but when he hears it might be closing he tries to stop it from happening. He speaks up and together with his town they save it and raise lots of money for it.
I really enjoyed this story and it has a lovely ending. I would tell all children aged 5-8 to read it!

This story is about a little girl whose name is Rocket and how she saved a local library from closing down. I liked the pictures in this book and that it contained interesting facts about libraries. I would recommend this book to my friends.

I really liked this book as Rocket helps to save the library by speaking up about it being closed down.

It made me realise how special libraries are.

Good book for how to stand for ourselves

I like that Rocket did a good thing and saved the library.

I read this book lots of times. It’s very interesting.

I loved this story and was so happy that they managed to save the library.

I loved it because it was about books and the library had to close so the girl speaks up and she builds a lemonade stand and makes money so that the library could be reopened. She used her voice for a good reason.

I liked that even though you are just a little kid you can still SPEAK UP IN FRONT OF A WHOLE CROWD

I like it and voted 5 stars because they are working together
to save money and the libary.

Another great book starring the wonderful Rocket whi is going to change the world. This will empower children to think about how they can make a difference about things that are important to them.
