Before Reading
Before reading the story, as a class discuss the book cover and title. Some things to include in your discussion could be:
- What can you see happening on the cover?
- Who do you think this story might be about? Why do you think this? Why do the trees have no leaves? What might have happened?
- What is an ark, and why might someone use one?
- Which animals can you identify from the cover picture?
- Where do you think this book might be set, and why?
