After her grandfather's funeral, Sarah wakes her father in the middle of the night so they can go to the lighthouse her grandfather loved and remember other night-time visits there.
Sometimes Munsch's books are overwhelmingly silly... and then he does something like this. There is a lot going on under the surface of this brief, sentimental story of a father and daughter re-enacting the night time lighthouse visits the father used to take with his recently deceased father.
Be prepared to get something in your eye.
