An inspiring children’s tale about friendship, wildlife conservation, and the magic of the Florida Keys
A Lucky Day is the story of Lucky, the baby loggerhead turtle. The reader finds out how Roxie the octopus, Dee the dolphin, and Mae the manatee help Lucky triumph over his first day of life off the Florida Keys. And why Pinder the pelican enjoys an unintended fortune in the end!
Kristi B. Bagnell, M.D. is a pediatrician and resident of the Florida Keys, the beautiful backdrop to A Lucky Day. When not working or writing, she and her husband enjoy anything in or on the water! With her many years of experience caring for children, Dr. Bagnell has a unique ability to craft stories that both educate and inspire. She is as passionate about parents reading to their children as she is about children learning the gift of giving. Lucky’s story also reminds us to teach our young ones what impact humans can have on our precious wildlife and natural environment. The author hopes you enjoy this story of helping hands and an unexpected reward!
