The Chameleon That Saved Noah's Ark

32 pp. | Penguin/Paulsen | May, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-101-99676-8 $16.99
(2) K-3 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.
