The Lobster Lady - Hardcover
by Alexandra S. D. Hinrichs (Author), Jamie Hogan (Illustrator)
This picture-book biography tells the true story of Virginia Oliver--the Lobster Lady--who was still lobstering in Maine when she passed away in 2026 at the age of 105.
Still hauling lobsters at over 100 years old, Virginia Oliver is admired in the state of Maine and beyond. She has been lobstering on and off for over 93 years and is fondly known as the Lobster Lady among locals. Virginia is 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.Author Biography
