Description: Mr. Chung Lee is a retired restaurant cook who buys one lobster a month with his old age pension cheque, takes the lobster to the seashore, and releases it into the sea. This book, a PEI favourite, was originally published in 1992 by Annick Press, but it has since gone out-of-print. New illustrations and fresh text will make it a favourite for a new generation of Islanders. This story won the L. M. Montgomery Children's Literature Award in 1990.
Brief description: Artists Glen and Perri Craig live in Charlottetown with their two children, Abby and Aidan, and dog Mac. Perri Craig is the illustrator of A Nova Scotia Lullaby.
Review Quotes: "This gentle story gives a brief glimpse into two cultures, as well as insight into our dependency on the sea for nourishment...Each vivid, colourful illustration, many full-paged, contributes to the dimension of the story."--Resource Links
