A nice note is included at the end that talks a little more about lighthouses and the people who ran them. It's kind of sad that this is no longer a way of life, but at least we still have the stories and--in some cases--the lighthouses themselves to remind us of a bygone era. Leadership is shared with students through a variety of leadership roles and student voice leads to innovations within the school.

A mouse inadvertently gets trapped by a lion, but instead of becoming a meal, the mouse is graciously set free. When hunters trap the lion, the mouse takes the opportunity to repay the lion's kindness. The brave mouse gnaws through the rope, freeing the lion and showing that no act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted. The book also won the 2019 Caldecott Medal. [14] Caldecott Medal Committee Chair Mary Fellows said that, “Children will delight in immersing themselves in the captivating discoveries each new look at ‘Hello Lighthouse’ will bring.” [15] References [ edit ]
