L is for Lens / Through the prisms, a lamp's dim gleam / is made into a mighty beam." For each letter, this book combines a brief, often clumsy rhyme about an item, place, or concept related to Great Lakes lighthouses with a few smaller-print factual paragraphs. The arbitrary abecedary format and bland illustrations won't draw readers to the decent regional information. (c) Copyright 2017. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
