La historia de Noé
Stephanie Rosenheim | Elena Odriozola
33 x 24 cm | 24 pages | hardback
isbn 978 84 936292 3 6 | 15 euros
Noah’s Ark story, so many times told in out culture,
appears illustrated by Elena Odriozola in a big format
picture book. The counterpoint, between the great
volume of water and the impressive nature against
the weakness of the Ark and its inhabitants,
gives as a result a poetic book. The book, with its
double-page format tries to strike the children
with every living creature above the earth
that deserves to be protected.

Without words, only through illustrations, we enjoy

Who will get wetter?
The gestures of the characters, the plot and the possibility
given to young readers to write their own words
for the illustrations, make this forty-year-old book
a fabulous precursor of the today picture book.
