A timeless, little-known literary classic to engage a new generation of readers As the Black Death ravaged London in 1608, in the midst of societal chaos and tragedy, playwright Thomas Dekker wrote Four Birds of Noah’s Ark, a book containing fifty-six prayers for the people of London and all of England. The prayers in this book bear witness to Dekker’s deep faith with a power and poignancy that few written prayers in English literature achieve. Bringing Dekker’s devotional classic back into print for the first time since 1924, editor Robert Hudson has annotated the prayers and modernized their language without sacrificing their enchanting beauty and simplicity. Hudson’s substantive and illuminating introduction is a gem in itself.

"Noah was a righteous man," says Isaac Bashevis Singer, so he and his family were to be saved from the flood. But rumor had it that only the best of all living creatures were to be taken aboard the Ark with Noah. In Why Noah Chose the Dove, a fresh and lively approach to the age-old account, Isaac Bashevis Singer sets down the dialogue of the animals as they vie with one another for a place on the Ark.

Asha the dove finds herself chosen by God to go with Noah on a journey in his great ark when the world experiences the greatest flood of all time. She feels both excitement at the sight of all of the animals marching in line to enter the ark, and a great fear. An earlier incident with the people of the village leaves Asha afraid of mankind, and lacking confidence in herself. Yet with the encouragement of Aaron the lion, she knows she is there for an important reason. When Noah chooses her to fly from the ark to find proof of land, she finds the courage to complete the task, despite her self doubt. God chooses Asha, an ordinary dove with a damaged wing to bring hope to the people and the other animals on the ark. The Ark and the Dove is based on Genesis Chapters 6-9 in the Bible. The first in a series of stories from the Bible told from the animals' point of view, these stories will bring a fresh and fun perspective to these enduring lessons, and begin a life long love of the Bible.
