Amy Huntington.
When the fog rolls in and the seas get rough, Grandma's son, the lobsterman, gets seasick. As in their earlier books, Grandma and grandson Billy rise to the occasion. With wild abandon, they drive the lobsterboat filled with lobsters for the town’s Labor Day picnic back to shore. Their humorous voyage back is accompanied by action-filled watercolor illustrations.
