Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
On the Manhattan bank of the Hudson River, a small lighthouse--made of steel and painted bright red--proudly protects boats with his faithful beam. One day a great expanse of gray steel, which also shines a bright light into the fog and darkness, is built over it. The little red lighthouse feels insignificant and useless in comparison but soon learns that . . . small can be mighty!
A portion of the sales from this book will be donated to the Jeffrey's Hook Lighthouse education and outreach programs.
A little lighthouse on the Hudson River regains its pride when it finds out that it is still useful and has an important job to do.
