stowaway on noah's ark

This is the traditional story of Noah's Ark told from the perspective of Achbar, a stowaway mouse who runs from hiding place to hiding place fearful of being caught and left behind in the storm. It is a bit wordy for a bright four year old but a story worth telling. For this family, it was the illustrations that compelled us to keep turning the pages. We enjoyed searching for Achbar in his various hiding places and this helped us to focus in on the beautiful pictures.
