Thank You, Lucky Star

Laura Rozler celebrates the concepts of luck and thanks as she explores the world with a series of evocative, one line descriptions of situations wherein a child (or adult), might be inclinedto thank one’s lucky star: …for the ocean’s calming lull      a dank (pronounced a-dunk)      Yiddish …for concerts in the kitchen     mamnunam (pronounced Mam-noon-am)          Persian ….for my sidekicks, when I need them     cam on (pronounced gahm-uhn)    Vietnamese ...for a mustache just like grandpa’s    salamat ( pronounced sa-la-maht)   Tagalog …for moving pictures in the sky     ay ay (pronounced hay-hay)  Cree Thank You, Lucky Star shares 36 of these celebrations, each exquisitely illustrated by Jan Dolby.
