Noah's Ark
Noah's Ark | Peter Spier
6 posts | 4 read
"the book is a triumph, the definitive Noah's Ark."Publishers Weekly Winner of the Caldecott Medal, an ALA Notable Children's Book, and a New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year, Peter Spier's Noah's Ark has been the iconic edition of this tale for nearly 40 years, in print continuously since its debut in 1977. In Spier's imaginative retelling, readers witness the danger and the grandeur of the terrifying flood but also the lighter moments: Noah's wife jumping on a crate to avoid the rats; Noah shooing all but two bees from a busy hive; and all the animal babies being born in the spring. It's an illustration feat that's both majestic and tender. From the Hardcover edition.

I absolutely love the use of color because they are light and pastel. I also loved the white border in the book, it had an overall clean and pleasing look.

This book is wonderfully illustrated and descriptive though the art rather than text. It is unique in the way it is an award winner without any words to describe the plot. It is easy to understand and sympathize through the illustrations alone.

Each page has multiple drawings and sketches with beautiful and intricate details. It truly portrays the story perfectly.

This is a classic bible story that I grew up reading with my parents. However, this book only uses pictures to tell this incredible story rather than words. I think this can be very beneficial when showing this story to younger children.
