read this Noah's Ark




Emily picked out this book from the Bookmobile last week. We have read many a book about Noah's Ark and also own several. Most books we have read are really tailored towards kids and tell the typical story. This version is really neat. Not only did it win a Caldecott Award, but it does not have narration, the pictures do the talking. The best thing about this version, is that it is the only one I have ever seen that has poop in the ark. Almost every picture has some, and some where Noah is scoopin' it. Also Noah looks really worn out in the middle of the story, I am sure he was totally beat, taking care of everything most have taken a toll. It also had two of every animal getting on the ark, but at least 20 bunnies and mice got off!
I think I am going to pick up a used copy from half.com or amazon, it is keeper
