Grandma Drove the Lobsterboat

After plowing snowy roads and collecting the town’s garbage, the indomitable Grandma has earned herself a proper day off. She’s ready to settle in for a peaceful Labor Day boat ride with her littlest grandson Billy while her sons haul in the lobsters for the town’s annual Lobster Bake. But when you’re this Grandma, nothing stays quiet for long.

When the waves turn choppy and thick fog rolls across the water, the entire lobster fleet finds itself in trouble. With boats struggling and the whole town counting on those lobsters for their celebration, someone needs to take charge—and fast. Naturally, Grandma grabs the helm of the lobsterboat and springs into action, proving once again that she’s the hero this coastal community needs.

Young readers will love watching Grandma navigate the challenges of the open water with the same can-do spirit she brings to every task. The story celebrates resourcefulness, family bonds, and the kind of community spirit that makes coastal towns special.
