About This Book
Book Details
A lyrical and charming picture book about making the most of your one precious life, from Grammy Award-winning co-founder of Pentatonix, Scott Hoying, and his husband, Mark Hoying.
Born into a world of endless skies, natural wonders, and friends waiting to be found–a mayfly, with only a single day to live, flies high into the beauty of it all. But when he sees all the other mayflies pairing off, he wonders if he will have to spend his day alone. Could it be that he just needs to fly a little higher to meet his match?
With lush illustrations and rhythmic storytelling, How Lucky Am I? encourages us all to appreciate the beauty of everyday life and those we share it with.
The book includes a QR code to link readers to the original "How Lucky Am I?" song, written by the authors and performed by Scott Hoying.
