The True Story of Noah's Ark by Tom Dooley illustrated by Bill Looney*

A beautifully illustrated picture book that accurately depicts the ark (which is not a boat but translated from Hebrew it means box!).
My seven year old and I took turns reading aloud this book together for our history curriculum.  Although this book is a picture book with lavish illustrations, the vocabulary and sentence structure is sophisticated.
I liked how a chart adds up the days Noah and his family were inside the ark.  Also, a fold out panorama that expands to over three feet offer an breathtaking view of the inside of the ark.
A CD is included (but we have not listen to it yet).
*Highly recommend.
-We own this book (bought it at the Ark Encounter in KY).
