A sweet rendition of Noah's ark

This is a wonderful retelling of a classic Bible story by Sally Lloyd-Jones. The author uses simple, every-day language, and retains several of the key elements of the tale, such as forty days of rain and sending out a dove. The book closes with these two lovely sentences: "Come out," God said, "and see the rainbow! It's a promise of my love for you." The illustrations by Trace Moroney are nice. Noah's wife is not included in either the text or the illustrations. Another fun book, Old Noah's Elephants, compensates and makes a good companion volume to this one.

a perfect retelling

This is the first time I've been able to read this story to a child without having to 'edit' about the world being covered with water etc - sweet pix, charminlgly retoold - excellent!

Great Interactive Book

This book gives children the opportunity to participate in Noah's journey by placing felt figures (kept in a snap pouch on the front of the book) on the illustrated board pages. Not only do children learn the story of Noah's Ark, but they learn other important pre-K concepts. I have my son (2 1/2 years old) sort the 24 felt figures into three categories (living things on land, living things in water, and non living things). He loves how each time we read the book he can decorate each scene his way. I should mention that the felt pieces are small and can pose a choking hazard for children under three. My son and I use the book together so this is not a problem.
