This is Noah. Noah was a good man who tried to do the right thing. But in the time when Noah lived, he was the only man on earth who was doing the right thing. All the other people on earth were doing evil things and hurting each other. This made God very sad. So God said that he was going to send a flood to the earth that would destroy every living thing on earth because he was sorry he ever made them. But God decided to save Noah and his family!
God told Noah to build a large boat and told him exactly how to build the boat. Then God told Noah that he would cover the earth with a flood, but that Noah and his family would be safe. God told Noah to fill the boat with a pair of every kind of animal and bird and to bring enough food for his family and the animals.
So Noah did everything exactly as God had commanded him. He filled the boat with a pair of every animal, bird, and small animal that scurries along the ground. Then Noah, his family, and all the animals went into the boat and then they waited for the flood to come.
