Summary

Poor Noah. There was not a cloud in the sky when he began building the ark that God said would protect his family from a terrible flood. But as kids learn in this rhyming tale of his faith, his neighbor's doubt, and God's promise of a rainbow, Noah wasn't crazy after all. He was obedient.

Classically illustrated, this read to me and with me story of one of the Bible's most memorable events teaches children ages four to eight to trust God to do what He says He will do even when everyone else does not. The story of Noah and his boat load of animals is a perennial favorite. The text is artfully designed to reflect the emotion behind key words. Words like tall and thin are design to look tall and thin. The lyrical text is perfect for storytime. 2014 will bring the release of the Noah feature film, which will have people thinking about this key Bible story.
