Publisher's Summary
Wit, Whimsy, Heartache, Tragedy, Triumph and Biblical Truth!
A magical adventure of animals traveling worldwide to Noah's ark. Max, a Scottish terrier, takes his usual morning trot down to the loch where he hears a mysterious Voice humming in the reeds saying, "Come to me...follow the fire cloud." He embarks on an unknown journey from Scotland, meeting other animals along the way including Liz, a brilliant, petite black cat from France. Max and Liz become the brave leaders for their group, and eventually, for the entire ark. The mysterious journey, filled with danger, humor, trials, and triumphs, leads them across Europe to the Middle East. The moment of arrival for these animals is spectacular as the ark is miraculously transformed into the animals' natural habitats. Throughout the prior one hundred years, Noah and family have to endure ridicule from villagers while building the ark. Now this family must painfully witness the loss of lives and total destruction of the earth through the mighty flood. After the journey to the ark, the voyage in the ark begins. Liz finds ways to keep the animals occupied, including daily exercise led by the flamingos and talent night where the animals entertain each other with their natural abilities. But a sinister plot develops. Someone is out to kill Noah and his family. Liz follows clues that lead her to discover a stowaway who has deceived them all. Max and Liz foil the plot, but at a high price. The end climaxes with unexpected twists and turns, taking the listener from despair to hope.

Amazing
Theatrical performance, with a clear distinction of each character. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed this story.

Fantastic family listening!
We absolutely loved this audiobook. Having already discovered Jenny L. Cote’s wonderful series featuring Max and Liz, we were very excited to finally listen to an audio version of this adventure.
Max and Liz kept us company as we drove interstate across Australia. We drove for 2 days without a screen in sight, just great scenery and an exciting story. All 6 children and both my husband and myself were captivated, held in suspense and in all the right places amused by this book. Energetic story telling worthy of this epic children’s novel.
I highly recommend it for children (and parents) of all ages.

Good concept but lacking action.
My kids found it a bit boring.
It would be nice if author did scientific research on pre flood environment/geography/fauna to make it more realistic.
Indeed she tries to make it educational at times talking about certain flora/fauna/geography. But this is a little dry for kids, and usually post flood.
