On a lonely island off the Maine coast, an old lighthouse keeper lives by the sea, the lamp, and the child he loves. Captain January has raised little Star Bright since the night a wreck cast her into his arms, and together they have made a world of tenderness, songs, lessons, storms, and simple faith. To him she is the light of his life; to her he is father, teacher, playmate, and protector. But when strangers arrive from the mainland, bringing wealth, refinement, and a claim upon Star's future, their humble happiness is shaken. Must love hold fast, or let go? Laura Elizabeth Richards's beloved children's tale is a gentle story of rescue, devotion, and sacrifice, filled with the salt air of New England and the warmth of an unlikely family. Short, sincere, and deeply affecting, Captain January speaks to readers who cherish stories of found children, lighthouse homes, brave old guardians, and the painful generosity of real love. Behind its simplicity lies a timeless question: what does it mean to give a child the best life, even when the giving breaks your heart? A classic of affection, duty, and quiet heroism for all ages, beside the sounding blue sea.
