Book Review-A Patch on the Peak of Ararat


by Gary Bower ( a Faith that God Built book)


This is a book that is fun to read.

This is the Nana who read to her grand kids, who turned every page and said every word
And thought, this is a book that is fun to read.

These are the children some big and some small, who looked at the pictures while
the Nana who read to her grand kids, who turned every page and said every word,
And thought, this is a book that is fun to read.

There were words like virtuous, carpentry, Ararat and proceeded,  for explaining to these children some big and some small, who looked at the pictures while the Nana who read to her grand kids, who turned every page and said every word,
And thought, this is a book that is fun to read.


These are the signs of wear beginning to show, of repeating the lines, of voice out of breath and tongue tripping speech, for there were words  like virtuous, carpentry, Ararat and proceeded, for explaining to the children some big and some small, who looked at the pictures while the Nana who read to her grand kids, who turned every page and said every word,
And thought, this is a book that is fun to read.

This is the time when the book words were ended for the signs of wear beginning to show, of repeating the lines, of voice out of breath and tongue tripping speech, for there were words  like virtuous, carpentry, Ararat and proceeded, for explaining to the children some big and some small, who looked at the pictures while the Nana who read to her grand kids, who turned every page and said every word,
And thought, this is a book that is fun to read.

And the children all smiled, the Nana did too, they said the book's like a poem, like a song, it's Noah's ark story revised, but yet true, for this is the time when the book words were ended for the signs of wear beginning to show, of repeating the lines, of voice out of breath and tongue tripping speech, for there were words  like virtuous, carpentry, Ararat and proceeded, for explaining to the children some big and some small who looked at the pictures while the Nana who read to her grand kids , who turned every page and said every word,
And thought, this is a book that is fun to read!

The book is written in a House That Jack Built style, with a few words to explain, with repetition that can tongue tie your mouth and make the reader take deeper breaths and sigh in relief when done.  Even then a very enjoyable book that must be read aloud.  It's an abbreviated version of the story and yet has the basic progression from building the ark to the dove, the rainbow and the promise in the end.  The last page directs the reader to the whole account in Genesis 6-9.

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
