Riassunto

Le illustrazioni intricate di Jan Brett creano uno straordinario albo illustrato di una delle storie preferite, questa volta con protagonista la nipote di Noè. Mentre le acque del diluvio si alzano, aiuta a portare gli animali sull'arca e a farli accomodare. Ma non è facile quando le giraffe dormono accanto ai panda e i leoni sono rannicchiati con i tacchini. Infine, il dolce dondolio dell'arca li culla tutti nel sonno finché le acque non si ritirano e il nonno Noè, la sua famiglia e tutti gli animali lasciano l'arca. Questa semplice narrazione, unita alle straordinarie illustrazioni di ogni animale immaginabile, rende On Noah's Ark perfetto per grandi e piccini.

Su questo libro

Informazioni sull?autore

With over thirty four million books in print, Jan Brett is one of the nation's foremost author illustrators of children's books. Jan lives in a seacoast town in Massachusetts, close to where she grew up. During the summer her family moves to a home in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts.As a child, Jan Brett decided to be an illustrator and spent many hours reading and drawing. She says, "I remember the special quiet of rainy days when I felt that I could enter the pages of my beautiful picture books. Now I try to recreate that feeling of believing that the imaginary place I'm drawing really exists. The detail in my work helps to convince me, and I hope others as well, that such places might be real."
As a student at the Boston Museum School, she spent hours in the Museum of Fine Arts. "It was overwhelming to see the room-size landscapes and towering stone sculptures, and then moments later to refocus on delicately embroidered kimonos and ancient porcelain," she says. "I'm delighted and surprised when fragments of these beautiful images come back to me in my painting."
Travel is also a constant inspiration. Together with her husband, Joe Hearne, who is a member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Jan visits many different countries where she researches the architecture and costumes that appear in her work. "From cave paintings to Norwegian sleighs, to Japanese gardens, I study the traditions of the many countries I visit and use them as a starting point for my children's books."
