Lizzie the lobster, caught in a loose trap and stranded on the shore, is saved by the caring actions of Manny the moose. In this self-published (1stlightministries.net) picture book by Maine author Tona Mareglia, Lizzie and Manny give credit to God for their ability to become friends despite their differences.

Line and watercolor illustrations by New England artist Rebekah Guiltner are bold and colorful, in keeping with the text without being overwhelming.
