Noah was fed up of the people in his world making a right mess of everything. He built a big boat to get away in, and invited his animal friends along - couples only! The animals queued up by the boat, two by two. All except for Mrs Shark, who came alone - she had accidentally eaten her husband! Would Noah be able to trust her on his boat? "Skylarks" is a wonderful series of illustrated stories with chapters for young readers who are growing in confidence. Each story is approximately 2000 words broken into 7 or 8 chapters.
