A hundred years before the Great Flood, a man named Noah came home talking crazy. God wanted him to build the biggest ship the world had ever seen. The future of humanity depended on it. How would his wife respond? What would the neighbors think? Was it even feasible?
This lavish reimagining of one of the greatest stories of all time will fascinate children and adults alike. Nuanced and playful, yet meticulous in following the biblical narrative, Mark Ludy’s world-class art digs deeper than the Sunday-school tale of cuddly animals, exploring noah’s relationship with his family, the natural world, God - and a formidable engineering challenge.Bonus: Find Squeakers the mouse on every page!

This book is full of beautiful artwork that helps you tell the story. I grew up in church, but I'll be honest and say that I didn't know what I was supposed to be explaining on every page, so it not only helps teach children, but also teach the parents about this famous Bible story.
Just look at some of the stunning artwork pictured here!
