Sam and Rose live in a lighthouse by the sea. Every day, they feed the hundreds of seagulls that come to visit them––treating the gulls like their own children. But one day a storm destroys the lighthouse, and Sam and Rose must move away. Will their lighthouse children be able to find them? Just right for the beginning reader, this is a Level 1 I Can Read Book that readers will want to return to again and again.
