The Other Ark

$18.95

A deliciously funny tale about Noah's SECOND ark, from the bestselling author of the Hairy Maclary and Friends series.

'Sam,' he said kindly,
'you've nothing to do
and I really need help
with this two-by-two zoo.
My problems are solved
if you're quick off the mark -
you can take all the rest
in my second-best Ark.'


Noah's Ark is jam-packed but there's still an enormous queue of animals waiting to board. So Noah asks his friend Sam Jam Balu to take the other ark . . .

But is Sam Jam Balu ready for the hip-hopping hippos, burrowing flumps and candy-striped camels with comical humps?
