He decided to build the world's first lighthouse. It would be a tall tower with a bright light that could guide sailors through the dark and stormy nights.

In a small town near the sea, Young builder with curly brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a determined look was playing with his tools and blocks, imagining the lighthouse he would build. He had a big smile on his face, ready for the adventure ahead.

With excitement in his heart and determination in his eyes, Ben started gathering materials to build his lighthouse. He collected sturdy stones, bricks, and glass to create the tower. Ben even found a shining light that would guide the ships.

Young builder with curly brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a determined look was in his backyard, surrounded by piles of stones, bricks, and glass. He was carefully arranging and stacking them to form a tall tower. The sun's rays reflected off the glass pieces, giving the tower a magical glow.

In the evening breeze, Young builder with curly brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a determined look stood by his completed lighthouse, admiring his hard work. The tower reached high up into the sky, with a glowing light at the very top. The sea sparkled below as ships sailed in the distance, waiting for the light to guide them.

Word spread about Ben's incredible lighthouse. Sailors from near and far would thank him for guiding them safely to the harbor. Ben knew that he had made a difference, bringing light and hope to those at sea.

At the harbor, sailors gathered around the lighthouse, expressing their gratitude to Young builder with curly brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a determined look.
