MarcusRashford urged children to find their voices after he guest edited the Beano.

Following the release of his new book, a children's comic has been created.

The Bash Street Kids are one of the characters in the special edition.

He said we should embrace our differences.

He said his favorite thing about the comic is how it brings together different children.

We find strength in our differences instead of dividing them.

All things that make us unique should be celebrated.

The special edition comic is in partnership with the NatWest's Thrive programme, which helps six to 16 year olds become more financially confident and realise their full potential.

The England footballer teaches the Beanotown kids about failure, persistence, role-models and patience.

The Marcus Rashford Book Club will receive 20p for every copy of the special Beano sold.

His book You Can do it: How to find your team and make a difference was published.

He said that we can make progress quicker if we fight for things that are important together.

Asking for help is a strength. Asking for help is a strength.

It's not hard to find your voice.

It can be as simple as having the confidence to stand up for what you believe in.
