A Genuine And Touching Story

This book tells the story of Ronnie and his aunt Martha Morse. The two are tending the lighthouse as volunteers so the official lighthouse tender can spend time with his daughter. They must take care of the Tern Rock Light until December 15. They must dust, clean, and take care of it. But the fifteenth of December comes, and no one is there to pick the two up. Will they have to spend Christmas in an isolated and remote lighthouse? In this wonderful book, Ronnie and his aunt learn that Christmas is beautiful anywhere, and the importance of a promise. This 1952 Newbery Honor Book is for ages 6-13.
