WHAT A LUCKY DAY!
By Jashar Awan

Norton, $17.95 (48p) ISBN 978-1-324-01552-9

"A clever way to approach a conversation on assumptions."
-Kirkus


"Cartoonist Awan makes an A+ picture book debut that warns against assumptionshis boldly graphic pictures combine the pop and verve of classic WPA posters with a contemporary expression and top-notch comic timing."
-Publishers Weekly


"We all know the old saying about the act of assuming. Awan's story is a much more eloquent—and entertaining—take on the whole matter...If this sounds like a book that wags its finger in children's faces, don't fret. It's not. It certainly has a point to make about falling for assumptions and believing superstitions, but Awan lets the characters carry the story. And it's one that will get children thinking about misconceptions, stereotypes, and jumping the gun to judge others."
-Julie Danielson,
Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast


"Spare text and bold, bright illustrations make an engaging combination."
-Mrs. O's Library
