Noah's Ark
Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, 1977. Spier, Peter. First Edition. Large Hardcover. Very Good / No Jacket. Item #2328873
ISBN: 0385094736
5th printing. Inscribed and signed by author on title page, with a humorous doodle added to the illustration. Jacket corners a bit rubbed with small chip from spine base and 1 inch closed tear to top corner. Binding tight and square, text clean and unmarked.
Unpaginated. In Spier's imaginative retelling, readers witness the danger and the grandeur of the terrifying flood but also the lighter moments: Noah's wife jumping on a crate to avoid the rats; Noah shooing all but two bees from a busy hive; and all the animal babies being born in the spring. It's an illustration feat that's both majestic and tender.
