When Noah is told by God that it is going to rain for a long time, he builds a big boat to shelter the animals. As the dark grey clouds gather, Noah finds two of every animal to join him on the Ark - soft tigers, rough elephants, furry giraffes and fluffy rabbits. There the rough and the smooth animals shelter together until the rains stop and the floods clear - and the reader discovers the surprise lift-the-flap ending.

Each page of this retelling features a textured panel so the reader can actually feel the different animals as they read the book and come to learn and love the Noah's Ark story for themselves.
