Nora's Ark — Eileen Spinelli

The weatherman predicted rain.So Nora built an ark.Just like Noah.Well....Not just like Noah. Noah welcomed a host of animals two-by-two. Nora's passenger list includes two backyard spiders, a pair of battery-operated monkeys, and a couple of unimpressed cats. Nora also employs her little brother, some dusty wooden boxes, and a sizeable dose of contagious imagination in her distinctive re-creation of the timeless story. Charming and inventive, Nora's big voyage, and its stirring conclusion, provide entertainment and inspiration for readers of all ages.
