The puffin keeper  Cover Image Book Book

The puffin keeper / Michael Morpurgo ; illustrated by Benji Davies.

Morpurgo, Michael, (author.). Davies, Benji, (illustrator.).

Summary:

It was Benjamin Postlethwaite's job all his long life to make sure the light shone brightly high up in the lighthouse on Puffin Island. Not once in all his years as the lighthouse keeper had he ever let his light go out. But sometimes even the brightest light on a lighthouse cannot save a ship. This is a story of a life-changing friendship, a lost puffin, and a lonely artist. It's the story of an entire lifetime, and how one event can change a life forever.
