The Lighthouse Keeper's Daughter

On a rocky island outpost off the coast of Maine, a young girl once kept the lighthouse lamps burning for days while her father was held on the mainland by a violent storm. This heroic incident forms the basis of Arielle North Olson's dramatic story about young Miranda and her family. They have recently moved to the lighthouse-and the reader becomes acclimated along with Miranda to the harsh and demanding way of life she finds there.
