Hello Lighthouse, by Sophie Blackwell (author and illustrator)
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a lighthouse, surrounded by water? In this story, see how the daily life of a lighthouse keeper and his family unfolds. Days and seasons pass, and the keeper writes every detail in his logbook. Afterwards, visit the museum gallery and learn about a real family of lighthouse keepers who tended the Boone Island Light in York. We will also have a visit from the current day keeper of Nubble Light.
