Summary: Review of Lobsters for Lunch
Comment: This story takes place in a restaurant, were a little boy and his family are out to lunch for his mothers birthday. The story revolves around the little boy and a little lobster in a tank. Each of the young think that they are saving each other from being eaten of having their family is eaten. The baby lobster is under the impression that when lobster is taken out of the tank they become huge and eat every human in sight. The little boy knows that his mother will eat one of the lobsters in the tank. Throughout the story the little boy and the lobster do the same things except in different "worlds".
I thought that the author had a cute story plot line and wonderful illustrations. However I feel that the point was not very clear. I could not see any real underlying moral. And honesty I would think that children might be upset with the fact that a lobster is going to be harshly eaten. Also the little boy misbehaves very badly in the restaurant and is not really reprimanded fully by his parents. I cannot see little kids reading this, maybe older readers.
I did like this book however do to the fact that it was neat to imagine what a lobster is thinking and Hartman very creatively explained this. I also see any true Maine resident and lobster eater to find this story cute and amusing.
