The Lighthouse Keeper
A surreal neon dream, this picture book is an ode to the sea, to connection, and to weathering the storm. Neon pinks, yellows, greens, and blues leap out from dark backdrops, depicting the lighthouse keeper’s ever-growing beard of small fishes, desperate sailors swirling in stormy seas, and the wink of a crescent moon as she bids farewell for another phase. Rhyming lines complete this enchanting picture book about a lonely, steadfast lighthouse keeper and the natural world that keeps him company.
