Noah's Big Boat is another in the Lift-the-Flap Bible Book series. Written by Allia Zobel-Nolan and illustrated by Steve Cox, this book imitates many popular toddler books, but offers a solid Bible base. It tells the story of Noah and the ark through simple rhyming text. The illustrations are bright and colorful.

The true draw of this volume is the encouraged educational searches through interactive flaps, more than 45 throughout the book. Each two page spread, after telling a portion of the story, invites children to find certain things behind the hidden flaps. Children learn counting (1-10), matching (male and female animals), shapes (triangle, square, circle, rectangle, diamond, oval, star and crescent), animal sounds (11 different ones) and colors (purple, orange, blue, green, red and yellow).

What I Like: Everything! My kids love this book and want to read it over and over again. The interactive nature of the book keeps busy toddlers and preschoolers interested while sneaking in basic preschool lessons.

What I Dislike: Nothing.

Age Appeal: The book says 3 and above, but I think children as young as 18 months would enjoy this book.

Overall Rating: Excellent.

Tanya -- Christian Children's Book Review

the board book should be thicker though. My 1 year 7 months kid, simply love it. This book top the book titled "Moses' big adventure".

Great book for the times at church when the kids need to be quiet. Several differnt themed pages (matching animals, shapes, numbers, colors, etc...) make it educational as well.

This is by far our daughter's (20 months old) favorite book. While others she enjoys for a week or two and then moves on to something else, "Noah" is an ongoing favorite. Does a fantastic job of teaching shapes, colors, animals, animal sounds, etc. And also has an actual story line to read when she wants it read to her. Highly recommend!

My 17-month-old daughter plays with this book daily. Each spread has a different theme -- numbers, matching pairs, shapes, sounds, and colors -- so there is a lot within this short book to hold and keep your child's attention. The animals are beautifully and playfully illustrated. It's a pure pleasure to read with my daughter.

Noah's Big Boat: A Lift-The Flap Bible Book is an oversized and sturdy board book, perfect for teaching young children the story of Noah. With 40 "lift-the-flap" inserts, the book also teaches concepts about numbers, matching pairs, sounds, shapes and colors. The book's bright and engaging illustrations lend to the story. The interactive nature of the book will make it a fun experience for toddlers, or for older siblings looking for a story to share with little ones!
