Pinkney, Jerry. Noah's Ark. New York: SeaStar Books, 2002.Jerry Pinkney, Caldecott Honor Book, Noah’s Ark is a story that interprets the Old Testament story of Noah’s Ark. Pinkney tells the story of how God approached Noah to build an Ark as he is going to flood the land, because he is not pleased with the people on earth. The illustrations done in an earthy tone with pencil and watercolor are full paged with much detail. Using the majority of earthy tones allows the occasional use of color, like the bright red apple, to stand out even more. The recreation of this story and the full page art will allow children to get a true understanding of the story’s message.
