Noah Builds an Ark

40 pp. | Candlewick | March, 2019 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-7484-7 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by John Rocco. Noah's parents prepare for a four-day storm by filling water jugs and boarding up their city home's windows. Meanwhile, Noah turns his red wagon into an ark for the creatures living in the yard, including salamanders, toads, mice, and hummingbirds. The magical realism in Rocco's illustrations offers readers a satisfying fantasy as Banks presents a new way to think about an old biblical story.
