The beloved modern classic character, Molly Lou Melon, is tackling the timely topic of speaking up for yourself and others.

The beloved modern classic character, Molly Lou Melon, is tackling the timely topic of speaking up for yourself and others.

Molly Lou Melon's mother taught her to use her big voice for good-to speak up for what's right, for those who can't, and even when it's hard. So she does.

So when school starts and a bully begins teasing everyone, including a new student, Molly Lou knows just what to do.

From standing up for a friend to admitting when you've made a mistake, Molly Lou shows us how speaking up is always the right choice.

The beloved classic character has another important message to share, and David Catrow's vibrant and spunky illustrations continue to expand Molly Lou's larger-than-life personality. Be sure to look for Molly Lou's other books, Stand Tall, Molly Lou Melon and Have Fun, Molly Lou Melon.

Reviews for Speak Up, Molly Lou Melon

Molly Lou enthusiastically embraces her mother's instructions to be true to herself, take responsibility, and accept people for who they are along with all their differences. . . While standing up to bullies is nothing new for the perpetually self-confident protagonist, the whimsical approach paired with Catrow's familiar signature ink and watercolor caricatures make this an easily digestible lesson in making good choices and speaking up. -School Library Journal
