What would be your “lucky day?”
Finding a dollar in your pocket?! A present comes in the mail you
weren’t expecting? Mom fixes pizza when you were expecting broccoli
and brussel sprouts? Or maybe a day when you enjoy a bubble bath,
spaghetti dinner, and a rub down?! Everybody’s “lucky day” is different.
You enjoy a good chuckle when you read about the clever pig in Keiko Kasza’s
My Lucky Day. It’ll be your lucky day, when you read this good book.

Booktalk #3
As
hungry Mr. Fox is getting ready to hunt for his dinner, there is a knock
at the door. Luckily dinner arrives on the doorstep in the form of a young
pig. As he prepares the pig for roasting, Pig convinces Mr. Fox to follow
his recipe. It’s long and involved and it exhausts Mr. Fox. See how this
clever pig tricks Mr. Fox and escapes being the main course. (Jean
