by Michelle Robinson, illustrated by Paul G. Hammond

tagged: humorous stories, stories in verse, marine life, imagination & play
Description

Bestselling author of over 50 books, including The Thunk, She Rex, and How to Wash a Woolly Mammoth, makes her Canadian debut with a hilarious tale of a lobster playing summer tourist in Nova Scotia.

Lobster's out the back door! Lobster's on the run!
Lobster's on vacation. Wow! Too fun!

From bestselling children's author Michelle Robinson comes a quirky rhyming story about Lobster, who has escaped from the ocean—and from the cooking pot—to enjoy everything a Nova Scotia summer has to offer. From ice cream cones on the South Shore to kite-flying on Citadel Hill and blueberry-picking and camping in the wilderness, Lobster's feeling like a true Bluenoser. That is, until he starts to feel homesick...

Featuring nostalgic illustrations from Halifax artist Paul G. Hammond, hearkening back to midcentury travel brochures, Lobster's Vacation is a visual delight as well as a fun read-aloud, with plenty of Nova Scotia sightseeing along the way.
