Courage Like Kate: The True Story of a Girl Lighthouse Keeper<\/em>
\nby Anna Crowley Redding (Author) and Emily Sutton (Illustrator)
\n@ Amazon<\/a> | Bookshop<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Fayerweather Island had seen blustery blizzards and rip-roaring tides, but it had never seen a pint-sized hurricane until Kate Moore claimed that tiny island as her own. Little Kate was supposed to be the lighthouse keeper\u2019s daughter, but she thought of herself as Papa\u2019s assistant.<\/p>\n

The thirty-three spiraling lighthouse stairs finally took a toll on Papa\u2019s body, and so twelve-year-old Kate stepped up. Over the years, she kept the flame lit to guide ships to safety, listened for cries for help, and, time and again, pulled men to safety–twenty-three of them in all. At the age of forty-seven, Kate received word–she had been named the official<\/em> lighthouse keeper of Fayerweather Island.<\/p>\n
