I relate to this book because growing up on a lake there was a lighthouse that me and my sister would always imagine what it would be like to live in the light house so I found this book to be interesting in the way that it could connect to my life.

This was an interesting book about a lighthouse keeper and his journeys with living in the lighthouse. I like how the book explores the life of this man but I find they book to be uninteresting.
“On the highest rock of a tiny island at the edge of the world stands a lighthouse. It is built to last forever.“
This would be a good story to read to children for two different prompts. A teacher can read this to children and talk about different jobs people have. Or a teacher can read this to children and talk about different struggles a family encounters in their life. To expand, not all families have the same privileges. For example in the book, seeing the doctor when sick or when having a baby.
Hello Lighthouse, 2018. Caldecott Awar Winning Book. This book takes the readers back in time to what life was like as a lighthouse keeper. The man and his wife lived in a lighthouse and logged different things that happened surrounding the lighthouse. For example, the whales in the sea and the icebergs. The readers get to see the man's family expand when he and his wife have a baby.
The loveliest book about a lighthouse keeper and his family on a remote island. I thought the illustrations were breathtaking and the author managed to fit such a beautiful story into such a sweet little book. We read this in anticipation of an upcoming trip to Maine with lots of lighthouse visits and my kids loved it. I found myself examining all the drawing for each unique detail that added a layer to the story. Highly recommended for any age!
July hasn't been great for reading--I can't stand The Stand, and I'm stuck with the unabridged version to get through for August bookclub in two weeks. Help!
Today I took a short trip to a nearby town that had nothing going for it at the seaside other than an adorable lighthouse and passageway via ferry to a popular island.

It's no wonder this is an award winning book. I love finding surprises #underthedustcover

#Movember Day 9: #LaIslaBonita reminded me of this Caldecott Medal book. Fats‘ review: the book “is a beautiful tribute to lighthouses and lighthouse keepers around the world. Written in verse, the book portrays the duties of a lighthouse keeper: tending the light from sunrise to sunset, sounding the signal to warn ships when it‘s too foggy, doing household chores, meticulously recording what happens each day in a logbook.” https://wp.me/pDlzr-k0t
This HF book follows a lighthouse keeper throughout the years. His life changes drastically as time goes by, but the lighthouse remains constant. The illustrations created by Sophie Blackall won her the 2019 Caldecott Medal. This book would be great for PR & RA. UDL 1.1, “Offer ways of customizing the display of information,” works here, because each page is so different than the last in terms of how the information is organized. #UCFLAE3414F19
