From Newbery Honor-winning author Jean Fritz comes, "The most alive story of the American Revolution that has appeared in many years." --The Horn Book

In pre-revolutionary Salem, fourteen-year-old Daniel begins to re-examine his loyalty to the King as the conflict between Tories and patriots increasingly divides the townspeople.

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.

Lighting up readers' hearts and imaginations since it was first published in 1942.
