About the Book
This is the story of Noah (Genesis 5:32-10:1) in pictures.--Book Synopsis
A lavishly illustrated, biblically faithful yet nuanced, and fun reimagining of one of the greatest stories of all time.
Digging deeper than the Sunday school tale of cuddly animals on Noah's ark, the story follows the biblical text and illumines Noah's relationship with God, his wife, family, nature, and humanity. Ludy's world-class artwork lets people see, as though for the first time, the beauty within this story - revealing a clearer picture of the nature and character of God and his relationship to humankind. It's immersive and epic in scale and scope. The wordless format invites conversation and storytelling, key building blocks of literacy. And as with Ludy's previous books, this story will appeal to adults and children alike, and his signature mouse Squeakers appears hidden on every page.
Review Quotes
"Ludy beautifully tells the Noah story using only richly detailed pictures: a domesticated dinosaur nibbles a tree; a polar bear licks Noah's face like a dog; Noah lays his hand on his wife's pregnant belly; she plays with her boys. The faces are an ethnic mishmash, suggesting that all peoples will descend from this family." --World Magazine
