STORY: There is a man. His name is Noah. He is a good man. He loves and obeys God. God loves Noah a lot. There are many other people where Noah lives. God loves them all but they do not listen to God. God told Noah to build an ark (big boat). Noah listens to God and builds a boat. When Noah’s neighbors see him build a boat they laugh. There is no water in the desert. So why does Noah build the boat? God tells Noah that there is a flood coming and he will need the boat. Noah asks his neighbors to change their ways and listen to God. But they do not listen. God asks Noah to bring two of every animal of the earth with him on the boat. Noah and his family and the animals lived on the boat for 7 days. After 7 days the rain fell. The water continued to rise for 150 days. God sent a big wind and slowly the earth dries up. After over a year Noah and his family move and start a new life on land.
