Paperback. On a rock at the edge of the sea stands a little lighthouse named Otto. By day, Otto is brave: he waves his light at the wheeling gulls and watches the boats roll by. But when the sun goes down and the dark creeps over the water, Otto is afraid, so he shuts his light up tight.Then one stormy night, a little fishing boat loses her way in the waves, and Otto understands: the dark he fears is the very dark the boat is lost in. If he can open his light, even just a crack, he might bring her safely home.The Lighthouse That Was Afraid of the Dark is a gentle, rhythmic bedtime story about courage, empathy, and shining for others even when you are scared. With a soothing refrain made for reading aloud, it reassures every child who has ever been afraid of the dark: you can be scared and still shine. Otto the little lighthouse is brave all day, but he is afraid of the dark. When a storm loses a little boat at sea, only Otto can light the way home. A gentle, read-aloud bedtime story about courage and shining for others, for ages 4 to 7. This item is printed on demand.

Then one stormy night, a little fishing boat loses her way, lost in the very same dark that Otto fears most. And Otto discovers that even the smallest light, opened just a crack, can grow bright enough to bring somebody home.
A gentle, empowering read-aloud for ages 4 to 7 about being brave and being afraid at the same time. With its soothing refrain of "Shine, Otto, shine," it is a natural pick for bedtime, for children working through fear of the dark, and for every small person who has a big light inside.
