At a Louisiana festival, sisters Annalise and Elloise enter their family's homemade pecan pie into a contest. Their day is filled with carnival rides, crawfish races, and dancing at a fais‐do‐do. But when Annalise doesn't win her race and their pie doesn't win first place, the girls uncover something far more valuable than a first place ribbon: the hidden victory of togetherness.This children's story celebrates Louisiana Cajun culture, family values, and gratitude. It reminds young readers that while winning feels good, the true prize lies in making memories, sharing traditions, and cherishing the joy of family.
