The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge Hardcover - 2002 - 1st Edition
by Hildegarde H. Swift; Lynd Ward (Illustrator)
This heartwarming classic tells the tale of a small red lighthouse on the Manhattan bank of the Hudson River who proudly protects boats with his faithful beam. When a great expanse of gray steel, which also shines a bright light into the fog, is built over the little red lighthouse, he feels useless in comparison. But he soon learns the importance of all things, big or small. Full-color illustrations.
Summary
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!
