In There Might Be Lobsters, Eleanor encourages her timid dog Sukie to enjoy a day at the beach. Sukie is reluctant, wanting only to observe with her beloved stuffed Chunka Munka by her side. Perhaps it is up to the stuffed monkey to save the day and help Sukie find her courage. Adorable illustrations by Laurel Molk will give students plenty to read in the pictures.
