One bright day, Noah sat in his garden, pruning his plants. Suddenly, he heard a booming voice, "Noah! Listen carefully! A great flood is coming, and you must build an ark!" Noah's eyes widened. He quickly asked, "How big should this ark be? How can I save all the animals?" God replied, "It should be big enough to hold two of every kind. You must gather them all before the rain arrives!" With that, Noah jumped into action, feeling both excited and scared.
After days of hard work, Noah finished the ark. He called out to his family, "Come and see! The animals are here!" One by one, the animals came—elephants, lions, and even tiny ants! As the rain poured for 40 days and 40 nights, Noah watched the world outside change. Finally, once the rain stopped, he released a dove. When it returned with an olive leaf, he cheered, "The waters have gone! It’s safe to leave!" Noah and his family stepped out, leading the animals into a new world. God smiled and promised, "I will never flood the earth again."
As Noah and his family stepped onto dry land, they marveled at the fresh, green world around them. The sun shone brightly, and the air was filled with the sweet songs of birds. Noah's heart swelled with joy as he saw the animals frolic in the lush fields. His children laughed as they watched the kangaroos hop and the rabbits play hide-and-seek among the bushes. "This is a new beginning for all of us," Noah said, smiling at his family.
Together, they built new homes, planting seeds to grow food for everyone. The animals helped too, with the elephants clearing paths and the birds dropping seeds from above. Each day, Noah and his family worked and played, grateful for the world that was blooming around them. They always remembered the promise that God had made, and a rainbow would often appear in the sky, a beautiful reminder of hope and new beginnings.
One evening, as the stars twinkled above, Noah gathered his family and the animals for a special feast. They shared stories of their great adventure and dreams for the future. "We are all different," Noah said, "but together, we make this world a wonderful place." With grateful hearts, they celebrated the journey they had taken and the bright future ahead. And so, their lives continued, filled with friendship, laughter, and love.
