The Prophet Noah

“... I had a mother who read me lays of ancient and gallant and golden days . . . .”

-Strickland Gillilan, The Reading Mother

The True Story of Noah’s Ark (with audio CD and pull-out spread) by Tom Dooley and the beautiful illustrations of Bill Looney is sold on Amazon with this write up: “God always has a plan; God always has a man. The plan: destroy the wickedness of the world. The man: Noah. How would you feel if you knew that God was going to destroy the world, and you had been chosen out of millions of people to continue the human race? This book is not just Sunday school material for kids, but the thrilling adventure of Noah comes to life through the dazzling, detailed illustrations and the exciting True Story of Noah's Ark. The images of the interior of Noah's ark are like nothing you've ever seen before. The people and cities depicted here are certainly more advanced than what you've been led to believe - these people weren't cavemen! They invented metals and musical instruments; they were skilled craftsmen; they built grand cities - all BEFORE the Flood. And this is not fiction - it's all biblically and historically based.

MY REVIEW: i read this amazing informative book while chaperoning grandchildren ages sixteen to seven-year-olds as we sat at the breakfast table. Sometimes they read. They were enthralled with the illustrations and information contained therein. Because of their interest, I am purchasing a copy for each of the families of my seven children and can’t wait till I hear their comments back.
