Stories at the Old Schoolhouse: The Lobsterman by Dahlov Ipcar (author and illustrator)

Stories at the Old Schoolhouse: The Lobsterman by Dahlov Ipcar (author and illustrator)

Spend an hour at Old York, hearing a story highlighting New England history and culture. Afterwards enjoy a related activity or take a peek inside the historic one-room York Corner Schoolhouse.

Recommended for children ages 4 to 10. All children must be accompanied by an adult. Admission is FREE!

This story of a day in the life of a lobsterman’s son, working with his father, is a staple of Maine children’s literature. As Larry and his father get their boat and traps ready for the busy summer season of lobstering, Larry builds his own trap, and makes his first catch! After the story we will meet some real lobsters and learn about this curious sea creature and the people who fish for them.
