The Lonely Lighthouse Bogle
Lindsey Millar and Vivien Sárkány
Bogle lives all alone in a lighthouse on a small Scottish island. Despite trying, he can’t find a friend, until one day he discovers a message in a bottle from someone who is lonely too ...
This quirky rhyming tale celebrates the magic of friendship. A bogle is a Scots term for a ghost and the text is peppered with some Scots words, making it a fun introduction to the language for little ones. Each page spread also has a secret spider to spot!
Featuring two of Scotland’s distinctive lighthouses: Eilean Glas in the Outer Hebrides and Start Point in Orkney, it includes facts at the end of the book to engage interest in lighthouses and the important roles they fulfil.
The award-winning title received funding from the Northern Lighthouse Heritage Trust. Part of the proceeds from the book will be donated back to the charity to support their aim of preserving and promoting awareness of our lighthouse heritage.
