Jamaican singer and five-time Grammy winner Ziggy Marley can now add children’s book author to his long list of achievements.

He and his 3-year-old son attended an event at The Grove in Los Angeles to promote his new book ‘I Love You Too.’

Ziggy, father of six and the son of the late legendary singer Bob Marley, based the book on his 2009 Grammy winning song by the same name from his children’s album ‘Family Time.’

Author Marley revealed his passion for his latest body of work: “This book is close to my heart because it was a spontaneous exchange between me and my then 3 year old daughter Judah. It expresses something so true; it should be repeated as often as possible.”

He added, “Children are wonderful, and they add to my whole life. I wish I could keep having them.”

Marley resides in Miami with his wife Orly Marley, a former vice-president of the William Morris Agency. They have three children and he has three older children from a previous relationship.

His book is available at Barnes & Noble, iTunes and e-book via Nook.
