What do you do when God tells you to build a giant ark? If you’re Noah and his family, you listen and obey— even if the entire town thinks you’ve lost your minds! This dramatic rendition of Genesis chapter 6 takes readers through Noah’s journey, including the years of hard work and hard-won faith. When flood waters cover the earth, Noah’s obedient family survives.
A believer in the need for positive, all-ages entertainment, Ben Avery created and wrote Zondervan’s graphic novel series TimeFlyz and the comic book miniseries ArmorQuest to entertain readers with an exciting story, but also inspire and encourage readers to stand up and make a difference in their world. Avery’s comic book career began when he was selected by George R.R. Martin to work as the script adaptor of the comic book fantasy mini-series The Hedge Knight, based on novellas by the New York Times bestselling author. After that, Avery went on to co-write/co-create the critically acclaimed Lullaby and The Imaginaries for Image Comics, co-create and write the children’s literature inspired fantasy The Oz/Wonderland Chronicles, develop and write the historical epic Kingdoms for Zondervan, and the sequel mini-series The Hedge Knight II, published by Marvel Comics. In addition to writing, he has been an English teacher, a college resident director, and a youth treatment specialist for sexually abused children. Avery lives in Indiana with his wife and four children.
This is an important book. I feel that it is important because it allows readers to really imagine what took place during the building and the times of the Ark. I really liked how this book provided references back to scripture for each part of the book. I feel that this book and the actual Bible book teaches us lessons that are valuable to Christians. This has taught me that no matter what people think and no matter how much criticism you face, you should still try to do the right thing and do what God tells you to do. Noah and his sons were criticized for building the ark. He still done what God told him to do. As a result, Noah and his family were saved from the harsh floodwaters that came upon the earth. In conclusion, this is an important read for Christians, no matter what.
