Noah by Mark Ludy with giveaway



A hundred years before the Great Flood, a man named Noah came home talking crazy. God wanted him to build the biggest ship the world had ever seen. The future of humanity depended on it. How would his wife respond? What would the neighbors think? Was it even feasible?
 
This lavish reimagining of one of the greatest stories of all time will fascinate children and adults alike. Nuanced and playful, yet meticulous in following the biblical narrative, Mark Ludy’s world-class art digs deeper than the Sunday-school tale of cuddly animals, exploring noah’s relationship with his family, the natural world, God - and a formidable engineering challenge.
 
Immerse yourself in this stunning wordless epic. Whatever your age, you’ll never read this story in the same way again.
 
Bonus: Find Squeakers the mouse on every page!

Noah is a beautifully, detailed illustrated wordless book.  A book with no words must make up for it in detail and this book has.  The illustrations are awesome.  The fun part about it is not only looking at the detail, but also looking for the hidden mouse, Squeakers, on every page.  You can get so caught up in looking for the mouse that you have to relook at the book many times to finally read the story.  ;P  A wonderful way to just have open discussion and dialogue.  A book that take one's mind in all sorts of directions. 

I have just the oppotunity for you to win a copy of your own.  This would make an awesome Christmas gift.  So just leave a coment telling me your favorite Bible story.  On Dec. 1st I'll draw a winner from all those that leave a comment.  Please this is open to US & Canada residents only. 


 

Mark Ludy has written or illustrated eight children’s books including The FarmerThe Flower Man, The GrumpWhen I Was  a Boy I DreamedWhen I Was a Girl I Dreamed, and Jujo the Youngest Tribesman. When he’s not immersed in his sketchbooks, you’ll find him in schools promoting art and literacy. He lives in Colorado with his wife, daughter, and two sons.
