Noah and the Flood
About this ebook
Long ago the world was filled with evil people. God tells faithful Noah, "There's a big flood coming. Everything will be washed away...Noah, make an Ark." So Noah and his sons build a big ship. It's so big that it can hold two of each of God's creatures, hippos and hares, monkeys and bears. As soon as Noah's family and the animals enter the Ark, rain comes. Lots and lots of rain. Can the Ark make it to safety?
It rains for forty days and forty nights. All that's left of the wicked old world is the critters and good people in Noah's Ark. Finally, bump! The Ark reaches dry land. A dove brings Noah a green olive branch. The flood is over. A rainbow shines in the sky, God's promise that floods will never destroy the world again. This lyrical retelling of the beloved Old Testament story will be read again and again by your child.
