With lyrics by Otis Redding and Steve Cropper and illustrations by Kaitlyn Shea O’Connor, this picture book imagines a lonesome cat fishing off a dock and hoping the fish will bite soon. The song was one of the last Redding recorded, and ranked number four on Billboard’s year-end Hot 100 chart, going on to win two GRAMMYs and be certified triple-platinum. (Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay is a charming picture book set to one of the King of Soul’s™ greatest hits. Then I’ll watch ’em roll away again, yeah. (Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay is the latest from LyricPop, a children’s picture book collection by LyricVerse and Akashic Books.
