My grand-daughter loves the story. The pictures are amazing ... the story is a new take on different animals than the norm.

The story of Noah's Ark is beautifully told in an original text and magnificent paintings, which reflect Jan Brett's love of animals, great and small.

Jan Brett's intricate illustrations against a beautiful papyrus background make a stunning picture book of a favorite story-this time featuring Noah's granddaughter. As the floodwaters rise, she helps take the animals onto the ark and get them settled down. But it's not easy when giraffes are sleeping next to pandas and lions are curled up with turkeys. Finally the gentle rocking of the ark lulls them all to sleep until the waters recede and Grandpa Noah, his family, and all the animals leave the ark. This simple telling, combined with extraordinary illustrations of every animal imaginable, makes On Noah's Ark perfect for young and old.
Beautiful New Book! But not biblically accurate.
