Translated by Annette Appel.
Illustrated by
Orit Bergman.
Noah and his family care for and feed all the ark's passengers. But the chameleons refuse everything--until a worm infestation is discovered. Bergman subtly infuses a touch of racial justice (Noah has brown skin; his sons and wife vary in color) in her illustrations. With a happy ending about everyone finding what they need, this resplendent book celebrates the miracle of nature.
