Produktbeschreibung
When Noah's parents build a huge boat in the backyard to house his wide array of pets, he worries the animals will forget him. Instead, Noah learns a positive lesson about the power of friendship and adapting to new situations. Noah Zark loves his many pets, from goats and penguins to giraffes and pigs. Whenever Noah wants to play, there's always an animal pal nearby to join in the fun. Unfortunately, that means the Zarks' house is very crowded. Goats are on the roof and bears are looking for snacks in the fridge! Noah's parents come up with a clever plan to handle their animal overload - they build a giant boat (ala Noah's ark) in the backyard for the animals to share. That's when Noah starts to worry. When his pets move into their new home, will they forget about him and never want to play? Or will the boat be a place where they can all share fun and games together, even better than before? Noah Zark shows young readers that while we may worry about change, new experiences can be fun and exciting. A change may be just what we need to make our lives more enjoyable, simpler, and yes, maybe even a little less crowded. Filled with bright, joyful illustrations, this endearing picture book about a boy who loves animals - and the animals who love him - sends a positive message about the power of creative problem-solving and the ability to adapt and grow with the help of those we care about most. Perfect for young kids who love playful tales and animal adventures, the themes in this book include worry, adapting to a new situation, problem-solving, and care for animals. "It's not the ark you expect. It's the story of a big-hearted boy named Noah who loves all animals. His parents support him and his friends by building a boat, Zark-style, for this diverse group of companions. Beautifully illustrated, this book may help kindle a child's appreciation for animals and might just spark a young imagination about the ways to care for pets and the creation." -- Rev. Betsy Singleton Snyder, author of Stepping on Cheerios: Finding God in the Chaos and Clutter of Life
