We are happy to host a giveaway of the picture book, Mrs. Noah, by Patti Richards, illustrated by Alice Pieroni (Little Lamb Books), out now. Enter to win a copy in the Rafflecopter below!
About the book: Finally, the other side of the Ark story! Noah can’t wait to show his bride the enormous ark he’s just completed. As amazing as it is, Mrs. Noah knows it can be more. She sees beyond the wood and fasteners to the home it has the potential to be—and so, she gets to work! With care for each animal and its needs, Mrs. Noah hammers, gathers, knits, and schlepps this floating house into a loving home. And while she starts the project on her own, teamwork will see it through.
