On The Table Read Magazine, “the best book magazine in the UK“, buildings take on the emotions of their inhabitants in new heartwarming children’s book, Lilly The Lighthouse: Saved By The Storm by Jason Goodchild.
The coronavirus lockdowns of 2020 were experienced by everyone the world over, and served as the spark for Jason Goodchild’s new series of books, The Dwellings, after he felt inspired by the array of heightened emotions experienced in homes around the world. Having set out to put those feelings into children’s books, he wrote the first book in the series, Lilly The Lighthouse: Saved By The Storm, exploring themes of bullying, forgiveness and the enduring power of friendship.
Popular old lighthouse, Lilly, lived in a town called Lea. When the local council decided that Lilly was too old, they built two new lighthouses and planned to demolish her, and the new lighthouses continually taunted her. But one fateful night, a storm changed everything.
Set against the backdrop of various global locations, each book in The Dwellings series centres on a different dwelling, from quaint countryside settings, to rocky cliff coastlines. As the narrative unfolds, readers will discover how these buildings are imbued with the feelings of their occupants. As a result, the buildings are now capable of expressing their own personalities, emotions and desires, offering a unique lens on the human experience, highlighting the powerful interplay between people and the places they call home.
With five-star reviews and loved by children and parents alike, Jason Goodchild’s story resonates with the people who lived through the experience of lockdowns, using colourful illustrations and rhyme to keep children engaged.
It was inspired by lockdown, where homes adopted the heightened emotions and feelings of their inhabitants and have subsequently come to life.
