Ark in the Park

It was the biggest, the strangest, the most wonderful pet shop in the whole world. It was called The Noahs' Ark, and it was built like a ship. &quote;After all,&quote; said Mrs Noah, &quote;with a name like ours, what other kind of shop could we have?&quote;But instead of rocking on the deep blue sea, the ship sat in the middle of a wide green park.On the other side of the park, in a tall, tall building, lived Sophie. Every night, Sophie looked out at the Noahs' Ark and made two impossible wishes-and one that was not quite impossible.And the Noahs, who had everything else they'd ever wished for, still had one secret impossible wish too.On a very special birthday, Sophie and Mr. and Mrs. Noah discover that sometimes, impossible wishes have their own way of coming true.Winner of the CBCA Book of the Year Award (Junior Readers)
