Hello Lighthouse

Summary

A lighthouse stands on a rocky island while its keeper tends the light through fog, storms, and changing seasons, eventually joined by his wife and a new baby before machines replace the keeper's work. Sophie Blackall's detailed Chinese ink and watercolor illustrations use tall pages and round vignettes to mirror the lighthouse's shape and the rhythm of the sea. The book captures devotion, family, and the passage of an era when lighthouse keepers still lived by the water.
