Synopsis:


"Noah was a righteous man," says Isaac Bashevis Singer, so he and his family were to be saved from the flood. But rumor had it that only the best of all living creatures were to be taken aboard the Ark with Noah. In a fresh and lively approach to the age-old account, Isaac Bashevis Singer sets down the dialogue of the animals as they vie with one another for a place on the Ark.

About the Author:
Isaac Bashevis Singer, winner of the 1978 Nobel Prize for Literature, has written many distinguished books for children, including When Shlemiel Went to Warsaw, The Fearsome Inn, and Zlateh the Goat--all of which were Newberry Honor Books; A Day of Pleasure, which won the 1970 National Book Award for Children's Literature; Mazel and Schlimazel, The Wicked City, and The Fools of Chelm.

Eric Carle's picture books have been published in a dozen languages. Among the books he has both written and illustrated are One, Two, Three to the Zoo, which was awarded the Prize for Graphic Art at the Bologna Children's Book Fair in 1970, Do You Want to Be My Friend?, and Do Bears Have Mothers, Too?
