Our Thoughts:
This book is so much fun!
Most of us know the story of Noah and the Ark, but this
book takes a fun spin on it and makes it a ton of laughs for both of my kids.
Ting thought the story of all the animals getting in bed with Noah was so
hilarious. She laughed through the entire story, and then took the book and
read it many times herself.
The sing-song rhyme of the story made it easy for Bug to
follow along, and he absolutely loved the illustrations. All the animals piled
high in Noah’s bed makes for a pretty funny picture. Since both of my kids are
pretty leery of storms, this book also becomes a story they can easily relate
to. Only I hope they don’t come jump in my bed next time it thunders, haha!
Of course, all the animals eventually fall asleep and we
are able to tell everyone – including my kids – goodnight at the end of the
story. This has become a fun bedtime story for our family. A great addition to
any kids’ library.
