The story of national heroine Grace Darling is made accessible for children by a master of the picture book genre.
One stormy night, Grace Darling, the lighthouse keeper's daughter, spots a ship in trouble on the rocks. At the same time, the lighthouse cat, Gracie, spots that a kitten from her new litter has strayed. Grace and Gracie both hurry to the rescue, braving the rain and storm. Grace alerts her father and together they take out the lifeboat; Gracie ventures into the dark night and howling wind looking and listening everywhere for her kitten.
Ruth Brown is famous for her appealing drawings of animals and nature and, here, beautiful full page paintings tell the dramatic dual story with power and pathos.
