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.

Illustrated in sweeping watercolors of blue and gray by Elaine Wentworth, The Lighthouse Keeper's Daughter will stir the hearts of readers as they watch Miranda struggle triumphantly against storm and rock and sea.
