Preschool-Gr. 2. At first glance, Two By Two appears to be a telling of the Noah's Ark story. It isn't! The book is a rhyming tale of two bored monkeys on the ark. They are mischievous and playful. They interact with well-known animals such as bears and tigers. They play ring toss with the caribou and do an Anaconda limbo. At the end of the book Noah opens the ark doors and all the animals leave, except for the monkeys, who are finally tired. This book is an animal adventure in board book format. The only biblical aspects of the book are the fact that the animals are on the ark, the dove returns, and Noah is in charge. The illustrations are large and colorful. The rhymes are contagious, and the book will delight very young children. --Ellen Tilman Informationen zum Autor Although she secretly longed to write fiction since childhood, Lisa Lowe Stauffer first wrote her way through journalism, marketing, consulting, travel writing, and poetry.
