#PBPITCH It’s Friday the 13th but Maurice is determined to have a lucky day. Armed with his lucky charms, he encounters a series of mishaps that threaten his positivity. A chance encounter with a fellow unlucky kid gives Maurice a new perspective on what makes a lucky day.

Mae is bouncing with joy about having a new kid in class, while Jackie dreads being the new kid. AN EXTRAORDINARY DAY is told from the perspectives of both girls who ultimately find common ground and turn Jackie's first day into something extraordinary. #PBPITCH

When SWASHBUCKLIN KATE’s broken leg leaves her shipwrecked on the couch she worries her thrill-seeking days are over. She finds her imagination doesn’t stop just because she’s stuck inside and with a little discovery, she just might keep her adventures alive. #PBPitch

@LoriMKeating I’m trying!
