The Light Keeper
Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade

Shmuel is eager to help support his poor family, but no one in town is interested in hiring a ten-year-old boy. One day, the village installs new electric lamps, bringing light to their square and dazzling away the dark. Until a lamp breaks during a storm--and Shmuel is the only one who can fix it. Will Shmuel be able to conquer his fear of heights and bring light back to his town?

A gentle tale of bravery, empowerment and community, and the thrill of transformation.
