Lighthouses: Watchers at Sea
Written and Illustrated by Brenda Z. Guiberson Henry Holt, 1995
In an engaging narrative, Brenda Guiberson recounts the fascinating history of lighthouses--from the struggle to build invincible towers, through the heroic rescues of lost ships and
drowned sailors, to the haunted tales surrounding these isolated structures. Although few lighthouses are still on active duty, the author connects young readers with the magic and lore
of these watchers at sea.
Lighthouses may be built to repel, but they're awfully enticing, and Guiberson gives them their full glory.--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
This is science storytelling for a "dark and stormy night."--Booklist
Fascinating and readable narrative.--School Library Journal |
