In "My Lucky Day" by Keiko Kasza, a clever little pig finds himself in a rather precarious situation when he visits a big, hungry wolf. Believing it's his lucky day, he thinks he might just escape being the wolf's dinner by turning the tables. Rather than succumbing to fear, the pig uses his wits to convince the wolf that he can help him with his dinner plans. What follows is a humorous and unexpected twist that explores themes of cleverness, courage, and the power of quick thinking in the face of danger. It's a delightful story that entertains while imparting valuable lessons. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].

Golden Sower Award - Primary
This book was recognised in the Primary category of the Golden Sower Award . Just as The Sower sows seeds, symbolizing the agriculture, life and prosperity of the state, the The Golden Sower Award seeks to sow seeds of literacy in children by encouraging them to read. The award became affiliated with the Nebraska Library Association as a committee under the School, Children and Young Peoples Section of the NLA in 1985. In 2016, the committee revised the categories of books in order to better describe the generally intended reading levels of the program. The three categories are now: Picture Books: (formerly Primary) generally appropriate for K-2 children; Chapter Books: (formerly Intermediate) intended to be appropriate for grades 3-5; Novel: (formerly young adult) appropriate for grades 6-8. In 2023, the committee revised and renamed the categories, keeping similar grade level designations, but adding an additional category targeted at high school readers. Each year, thousands of Nebraskas youth participate in the Golden Sower Award by reading titles, talking about the books with others, holding book battles, voting for their favorites, and throwing celebrations for the winners.
