      • content: Jerry Pinkney's illustrations for NOAH'S ARK merited a 2003 Caldecott Honor Medal. The richness and detail of his watercolor artwork infuse the timeless story with life and meaning. From the time of destruction to the spreading of the rainbow, Pinkney retells Noah's story of ark and flood, animal and family. Dennis Haysbert narrates the story with due pomp and ceremony. His voice is deep and full of wonder. He accentuates the repetitions in the text, which portend the coming events. An echo technique, sound effects, and an orchestral accompaniment add to the recording. With the book in hand, the listener will enjoy a theater-like experience.

        Starred review from September 30, 2002
        Pinkney (The Ugly Duckling)
        unfurls some of the finest illustrations of his career in this lush, not-to-be-missed version of the perennially popular Bible story. In unfettered, graceful prose, Pinkney relates Noah's faithful work in building the ship and gathering the animals. He enhances the smoothly rendered plot with simple, evocative detail ("The strong wooden beams embraced the clouds"; " followed him into the ark, and God closed the door behind them"). The watercolor-and-pencil animal tableaux—delicately hued, vigorously executed—are stunning in their artistry. Realistically drawn creatures flap, leap, lumber and slither about under the watchful, hopeful eyes of a kind-faced, gray-bearded Noah and his family. These crowded but never chaotic scenes, as well as those depicting whales in implicit comparison with the ark, will help children grasp the magnitude of the story's message of faith, stewardship and obedience. Ages 5-8.
