Item Description

A lighthouse gift pack for kids! This set includes 4 lighthouse books plus a plush Spot the Lighthouse Dog and a set of lighthouse stickers.

Lighthouse Dog to the Rescue: In the 191 year history of Owls Head Light Station, “Spot” the dog may very well be the light station’s most beloved story – an account that is both heroic and heartwarming. “Lighthouse Dog to the Rescue is about Spot, a remarkable spaniel who lived at Owls Head Light with the keeper’s family in the 1930s,” says Angeli Perrow. “He learned to ring the fog bell to greet passing boats and came to the rescue of the Matinicus mailboat one stormy winter night.”  30 pages, 8.5"x11", full color illustrations.

Keep the Lights Burning Abbie: Abbie was afraid. She had never had to keep the lights burning by herself. But many lives depended on the lighthouse, and Papa was depending on Abbie. This is the exciting true story of Abbie Burgess, who in 1856 single-handedly kept the lighthouse lamps lit during a tremendous storm off the coast of Maine. Paperback, 6 x 0.2 x 8.5 inches, 40 Pages

Lighthouses Short & Tall: Inside you will find 45 line drawings of lighthouses by J.A. Tilley--12 from the Atlantic Coast, 11 from the Gulf Coast, 11 from the Pacific coast, and 11 from the Great Lakes. Each drawing is accompanied by a page of text based on a primary source, chosen to illustrate different aspects of building, keeping, and maintaining a lighthouse. The text is not a history of lighthouses, but rather a review of their predominant features. 48 pages.

B is for Beacon: A Great Lakes Lighthouse Alphabet uses poetry and expository text in this alphabetical exploration of the history of lighthouses on the Great Lakes, detailing famous structures, local lore, as well as notable moments in Great Lakes history. Hardcover, 32 pages, 9 x 0.2 x 10.8 inches
