5.0 out of 5 stars In the style of "Love You Forever", December 12, 2003

This review is from: Lighthouse: A Story Of Remembrance (Hardcover)

Another classic Munsch book. Written in the style of "Love You Forever" If you don't like the sad endings you might want to stay away from this book. If your child is coping with the loss of a Grandparent I would definitely recommend this book. It gives a wonderful message of remembrance and tradition and the importance of what parents pass down to their children.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Beautiful Book!, April 5, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Lighthouse : A Story of Remembrance (signed) (Hardcover)

A wonderful story of a father and daughter reliving memories of the grandfather, who often took the father to visit the lighthouse near their home in Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Well-written, as is usual for Robert Munsch, and the illustrations are beautiful.

Great story about a little girl's midnight trip to a lighthouse, complete with maple icing donuts! My son, who normally does not like traditional kids stories, loves this one!
