The Curious Lobster

An American Wind in the Willows, this charming tale of Mr. Lobster and his underwater and dry land friends celebrates curiousity and having an open mind, and will be sure to delight children and parents.

Whether you are five or one hundred and five,Â chances are youâ€™ve never met a lobster as learned andÂ charming as Mr. Lobsterâ€”and heâ€™d be the very first to tellÂ you so. Mr. Lobster has evaded the fishermanâ€™s trap for decades, butÂ life in his corner of the ocean seems duller by the day. The time has comeÂ to seek new adventures, new friends, and evenâ€”gasp!â€”new, dry lands.Â Dry land is of course perilous for a saltwater-dwelling creature, as areÂ the folks you can meet there, like badgers, bears, birds, and snakes.Â But Mr. Lobster has a way of turning every enemy into a dear friend andÂ of escaping the scrapes his curiosity gets him into.

An American Wind in the Willows, The Curious Lobster stories haveÂ been delighting a small and devoted fellowship of readers for going onÂ eighty years. Sweet but not cloying, instructive but not didactic, theyÂ acknowledge the challenges of getting along with others and celebrateÂ the possibilities of a life lived beyond the normal swim of things.

This edition collects all of Richard W. Hatchâ€™s Mr. Lobster stories,Â originally published in two volumesÂ The Curious Lobster and TheÂ Curious Lobsterâ€™s Island.
