\"Mrs<\/a>
Buy this great book here...<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When Mr Noah builds the ark, he makes two lists, one for all the animals who will come on board, and one for those troublesome creatures he will leave behind. Meanwhile, Mrs Noah gets out her sewing machine and makes a coat with very deep pockets.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The waters rise and rise and Mr Noah is very busy gathering in all the animals.<\/p>\n

\u2018Mrs Noah went for one last walk, wading through water, into the heart of the Mythico Wood, on errands of her own.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n

This is a beautiful book with a starlit combination of author, Jackie Morris<\/a> and illustrator, James Mayhew<\/a>. It is published by Otter-Barry Books<\/a>, and is a delightful new book on their collection this year, published on 7th<\/sup> September 2017.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 Jackie Morris is an author and illustrator, photographer and painter. She lives in a small house by the sea in St David\u2019s Wales, a place of wonderful views and possibly a little bit of magic too?<\/p>\n

James Mayhew is also an author, artist and storyteller whose books reflects his passionate advocacy of the arts for young children. He lives in Baldock, Hertfordshire.<\/p>\n

The text is magical with a sense of mischief and purpose around Mrs Noah, as she sets out on her journeys in the coat with very large pockets.<\/p>\n

At the end when the dove returns with the olive tree twigs and the animals are released, the answer to the mystery of the pockets appears in the illustrations.<\/p>\n

I loved it and would like to read and look at this book again and again.<\/p>\n
