Get ready for a bubbling, butter-drenched tale that dives deep beneath the waves—then comes back home to the dinner table! In Grandpa Goes Scuba Diving, the latest story in the heartwarming Grandpa Goes series, Grandpa shares a salty sea adventure with his beloved grandkids—Ben, Liam, and Parker—reminding them that the best stories are those told with love, laughter, and a little melted butter.
Story Summary:
When Grandpa goes on a scuba diving trip with an old friend, he explores coral reefs, swims alongside tropical fish, and searches the sea floor for one of his favorite treasures—lobster! With his scuba gear secured and his heart full of joy, Grandpa carefully catches a few lobsters—only during the right season, of course. When he returns home, it’s time to gather the grandkids around the grill for a feast they won’t forget.
As Grandpa recounts the sights and sounds of the underwater world, the kids listen wide-eyed. Parker, curious as ever, tries lobster for the first time and declares it her new favorite food! Grandpa teaches them about respecting God’s creation, following the rules of the sea, and always giving thanks—especially when you’re sharing a good meal with the people you love most.
