A tribute to Virgina Oliver and her lobstering legacy that is perfect for ages 4–10. Now in paperback!
Still hauling lobsters at over 100 years old, Virginia Oliver was admired in the state of Maine and beyond. She had been lobstering on and off for more than 95 years and was fondly known as the Lobster Lady among locals. Virginia was a native of Rockland, Maine.
The Lobster Lady chronicles a day in Virginia's life while illuminating all that she remembers from growing up and starting a family on the mainland in Maine and on her family’s island, called the Neck. Readers get a sense of Virginia’s life and an idea of all that goes into lobster harvesting.
Lyrically told and beautifully illustrated, The Lobster Lady is a tribute to the incredible life of a Maine icon and female pioneer.
