The Lighthouse Keeper's Catastrophe
Once there was a lighthouse keeper called Mr. Grinling. At night time he lived in a small white cottage perched high on the cliffs, and in the daytime he rowed out to his lighthouse to clean and polish the light. When Mr Grinling locks himself out of the lighthouse, he tries everything to get back inside. Not only is Hamish the cat trapped inside, he also needs to switch on the light to warn the ships that they're near the rocks on the coast. Luckily Mrs Grinling has an ingenious plan to get back in ... but will it work? The first Lighthouse Keeper story, The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch, was published over thirty years ago and his adventures have been loved by children ever since. It is now a modern picture book classic.
