A long time ago—so long ago that the world was still brand new—it began to rain.
And it rained so hard that not a single dry spot was left on earth.
So a man named Noah built a huge ship to save people and animals. Noah gathered all kinds of animals, every kind there is in the world.
He even took slugs and spiders, beetles and all sorts of nasty bugs with him.
They spent twenty days and twenty nights at sea, and then one day the ark began to leak.
"What shall we do?" Noah cried out in horror.
Who will save the ark? A new version of the well-known story is presented by Scottish writer Kenneth Steven and Norwegian illustrator Eivind Turseter, winner of prestigious children's book awards, including the Bologna Ragazzi Award.
