ISBN: Format: Paperback; 64 pages Size: 6.75" x 8.25" x 0.1875" Age Range: Preschool years and up Publisher: Voyager Books Keywords: bridge, classic, lighthouse [Back of Book] Built in 1880 of cast iron and steel, the "fat and red and jolly" little lighthouse sits on the bank of the Hudson River in New York City. When the great, gray, and powerful George Washington Bridge is built overhead, the little lighthouse feels very, very small. But he soon comes to understand that he is still needed to guide boats through dark and stormy weather. Lighting up hearts and imaginations since it was first published in 1942, this beloved children's classic has been restored to its original design and -- for the first time -- includes the recently discovered original watercolor paintings by Lynd Ward. [Additional Notes] This story is a true classic and timeless in its metaphoric message to little ones that we all have our place in this world and little is just as important as big. |
