FROM SARAH:

This classic picture book is based on a real little red lighthouse and a real great gray bridge... and you can still visit them today! You may remember this delightful book from your own childhood.

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

On the Manhattan bank of the Hudson River, a small lighthouse--made of steel and painted bright red--proudly protects boats with his faithful beam. One day a great expanse of gray steel, which also shines a bright light into the fog and darkness, is built over it. The little red lighthouse feels insignificant and useless in comparison but soon learns that . . . small can be mighty!
