This book is a winner for a catholic school library such as ours. In the context of the classic Noah’s Ark story, this book took the perspective of Mrs. Noah. While her husband was busy saving two of each animal on Earth, Mrs. Noah very practically focused on vegetation, particularly edible vegetation. She gathered up seeds, plants and trees and loaded them on the ark. During the flood, Noah’s family had plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables to eat. When the ark finally landed, Mrs. Noah was able to begin replanting the earth with vegetation. The illustrations are colorful and detailed.
