Delightful and gripping tales told by Noah's animals gathered on a mountain bank above a magic pool. The animal storytellers are introduced in a vivid and witty prologue reminiscent of the Canterbury pilgrims 600 years ago, but in contemporary and compelling language. Under the lion's watchful, yet benevolent eye, the animals tell tales of heroism and hope, tragedy and loss, redemption and humor. Readers young and old are swept into a magical world of masquerades, lost subterranean rivers, and forest kingdoms. Animals, as Robert Burns attested, are our earthbound fellow mortals on our journey through infinite space toward ultimate destruction. This book is a thoughtful pause on that journey. Jeremy Turner's effortless verse sets the mood for each character and tale with the precision of a classical composer.
