When a devastating hurricane destroys her home and leaves her stranded above a flooded world, Mara has only a few supplies—and the old lantern her father once gave her.
Then, on the fourth morning, a small boat appears.
Inside is Daniel, a frightened young boy who has survived the disaster alone. With danger surrounding them and their supplies running low, Mara and Daniel must depend on each other to survive.
But there is one thing they refuse to lose: hope.
As darkness falls, Mara lights the lantern and makes Daniel a promise: as long as the light stays on, they will keep going.
Through fear, uncertainty, and the long wait for rescue, the little lantern becomes more than a source of light. It becomes a symbol of courage, friendship, and the strength to believe in tomorrow.
The Last Lantern is a moving story about survival, hope, kindness, and the small light that can guide us through the darkest moments.
