This is the story of Noah's Ark set in the world of today.
A huge flood is coming. Noah is instructed to build a giant space rocket in his back garden big enough to carry two of every kind of living thing. Together with his family, Noah and the animals will blast off into orbit around the Earth until it is safe to return.
However...
As work on the rocket begins, the neighbours complain. Noah is arrested and to his alarm the rocket is dismantled. Noah realises he cannot build another giant rocket anywhere without the police finding out.
How will Noah complete his mission?

I read this to my 6-year-old space-mad son who wants to invent new space rockets when he grows up. He loved it. So we read it again. Then, on a trip to London, we happened to see the building in real life, which was very exciting. Now we've got it out again, but this time he's reading.

I liked it because Noah's wife was dancing with a penguin.
