Teacher, Jun 1 2008
By Kahty Ellzey - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lighthouse Lindy (Hardcover)
I am a teacher of 2nd through 6 grade gifted students. After reading reviews, I felt like this book would be good to share with my students. I purchased it and read it to my 2nd through 4th graders. They all liked it, but especailly the 2nd and 3rd graders. I always like books that teach values, and this one is full of life lessons about accepting others' differences and forgiveness. The lighthouse theme was appealing to both the boys and girls in my classes. The way that the author personified the lighthouses, and provided foreshadowing kept the students engaged. The students seemed to connect with Lindy and Laramie. Several other teachers in my school borrowed my copy and read it to their classes. Then they purchased a copy for their classrooms or their own children. I recommend this book to any teacher or parent of boys or girls in 1st through 3rd grades.

You gotta love Lindy!, May 31 2008
By Patricia J. Ray "Reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lighthouse Lindy (Hardcover)
What a delightful book! The story leave you with a positive feeling about Lindy (and yourself). Nice to see books designed to make kids value themselves and others in an "I can do it" way. Illustrations get you involved emotionally with this sweet little lighthouse. Good job over all. Should become a favorite.

Simple tale brought to life with soft color illustrations by award-winning artist Laura Shanley., Sep 6 2008
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lighthouse Lindy (Hardcover)
Award-winning newspaper writing and poet Gloria D. Butler presents Lighthouse Lindy, a gentle children's picturebook about an anthropomorphic lighthouse named Lindy, who faithfully guides sailors at sea. When the modern, computerized Lighthouse Laramie is built nearby, Lindy is shut down for a time - she questions her own worth compared to the arrogant new Laramie. But when hurricane weather cuts out Laramie's power, he can no longer help desperate sailors - it's Lindy's old-fashioned gas light and her faithful lighthouse keeper that save the day. The two lighthouses learn the importance of teamwork, and that each of them has a unique strength, in this simple tale brought to life with soft color illustrations by award-winning artist Laura Shanley.
