Life with only the sea can be lonely. Just ask Pandora and Seabold. They've lived most of their lives with the sea -- Pandora in a lighthouse and Seabold on a boat -- and they're each quite used to being alone. Or they were.
But one day, the sea did something extraordinary: It brought Pandora and Seabold together And even better, the sea gave them the ingredients for an adventure that neither of them had considered before-an adventure called "family."

Lila and Whistler stumble across Sebastian, a lost baby beluga, on the beach near their new home. Soon the lighthouse crew--along with a noble but cranky cormorant--is caught in a high-seas adventure to reunite Sebastian with his mama. Illustrations.

In this third adventure of the Lighthouse Family by Newbery Medalist Rylant, Whistler and Lila lose their way in the forest. As they search for a way back to the lighthouse, they meet a wise eagle who teaches the siblings how to follow their instincts to find the path home. Illustrations.

Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant brings the peaceful sounds, sights, and characters of the coast vividly to life in the fifth book of the Lighthouse Family series, in which the family explores the shore with an octopus friend.

Every once in a while, a full moon shines over the lighthouse and causes the tide to recede. For Cloe the octopus, this turns out to be a wonderful opportunity to explore the world that exists outside of his ocean home. As he embarks on his expedition, he encounters the lighthouse family by the beach and they explore the treasures of the uncovered ocean floor...
