It Wasn't Me!
Daniela Marchitto, Erica Borgato
The House of Light
Picture book
A lighthouse at the edge of the world becomes the eternal voice of history — witness to storms, monsters, prayers, and forgotten worlds.
Long ago, at the boundary of the known world, brave men built a tower and lit a fire to hold back the darkness. Since then, the House of Light has stood as a silent witness to storms and shipwrecks, ghosts and monsters, sirens, whales, and forgotten kingdoms. Its walls preserve both wonders and horrors — the echoes of everything it has seen. Now, as its flame begins to fade, new keepers must arrive to rekindle the light and carry its stories forward.
- Breathtaking illustrations that create a rich and immersive visual world, perfect for readers and art lovers who value high-level illustration.
- A lyrical narrative that blends poetry and emotional resonance, leaving a lasting impression on readers of all ages.
