When the famous restauranteur lobster, Monsieur Thermidor, reads his birthday horoscope on Salome Starfish's page, he can't help wondering what lies ahead. And mysteriously enough, strange things start to happen... But he keeps a cool head and masterful manner. How he escapes, wins the love of a beautiful lady lobster and fulfills Salome Starfish's prediction, makes for a delightfully fishy tale.
