Ahoy! To man a lighthouse over a century ago in America required guts, courage, and bravery. It was a job tackled by hundreds every day, many of whom . . . were not men! This true tale chronicles the amazing feats of four fascinating women. Each real lighthouse lady featured in this book—whether she’s on a wind-walloped Hawaiian clifftop or an icy channel off the Virginia coast—shows that girl power was around long before it became a popular phrase.
A journalist since she was a teen, Kris Coronado has a proven track record of exploring captivating subjects for outlets such as the Washington Post. She was inspired to write Lighthouse Ladies when she came across an old newspaper article mentioning a woman lighthouse keeper off the coast of Maine. Intrigued, she dove in deep. Kris lives in Richmond, Virginia, with her husband and two daughters, who now love visiting lighthouses on family vacations. You can see more of her work at kriscoronado.com. Islenia Mil, an Afro-Latina illustrator, blends captivating composition, intricate line work, rich textures, and vibrant hues to craft meaningful narratives. Raised in both the vibrant culture of Santo Domingo and the dynamic energy of New York City, she transports viewers into realms of imagination. She is also the illustrator of Lighthouse Ladies: Shining a Spotlight on Hardy Heroines by Kris Coronado. Islenia Mil lives in New York City.
