SAVING ALBERT, THE CHRISTMAS LOBSTER

Rights Holder: Editions J'ai Lu
Original Language: French

Béatrice and Erwan have been dating a few months and so it may be too soon for him to be bringing her home to meet the family in Brittany. For Christmas! But that’s just what he does.

Erwan’s mother wishes that he never left home to move to Paris. He barely even calls her to talk. And what’s this about a girlfriend? She didn’t know he was dating anyone. But she couldn’t be happier that he’s coming home for the holiday, even if it’s with a Parisian vegan.

You know who might be even happier to see Erwan? His ex-fiancée. The one he broke up with when he moved to Paris. His mother should let her know that Erwan will be in town and invite her over…

Erwan’s father is the only one who doesn’t know that Béatrice is a vegan (a concept he would never tolerate) so when he plans on providing a lobster as the Christmas feast, he couldn’t know that he was being disrespectful. But Béatrice can’t bear the thought of the lobster she has now dubbed Albert being killed and eaten for dinner.

She has no choice; she has to save Albert.

Lise Syven is from Brittany and is a computer engineer. She is the author of children’s books and romantic comedies.
