About this Item

Paperback. Based on actual events, Lighthouse Dog to the Rescue tells the story of Spot, the friendly dog of a lighthouse keeper's family. He accompanies his master on all the rounds of the lighthouse, even pulling the rope to ring the lighthouse bell. One day, a severe winter storm cripples the lighthouse. Fortunately most of the boats have returned safely to harbor - all except the mailboat, lost in the cold and snow and seeking a safe channel to the harbor. It is Spot who hears the boat's motor and saves the day when his excited barking is loud enough to guide the mailboat captain home. Beautiful illustrations bring this charming tale vividly to life. Pauline, the lighthouse keeper's daughter, is proud of her pet spaniel because he is helpful and clever and a friend to all. But even Pauline does not realize just how brave and loyal Spot is until the night a terrible blizzard hits and a boat is missing out in the storm. Based on a true story from Maine's maritime history. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
