An eerie noise in the night is disturbing the sleep of all the
animals on Noah's ark. None of the animals can identify the strange
sound that has woken them up. It doesn't sound like the owls, or
the cows or even the pigeons. Then the rabbits discover---a goblin!
Frightened of this strange creature, the animals try everything to
scare it away. But when they hear the same strange sound coming
from another part for the ark, they realize there are TWO goblins
just searching for one another, and as they rally to help, create a
feeling of safety for everyone on the ark through the stormy days.
Young children will love trying to help solve the mystery, imitate
familiar animal sounds, and contrast them with the unfamiliar sound
of a sweet-looking goblin, and join in as all the animals on the
ark call to the goblin's partner so the two can be reunited. An end
note for families explains the Jewish origin of goblins, the Jewish
concept of tikkun olam (repairing the world), and the importance of
both finding the similarities between ourselves and others, and
accepting, even celebrating, our differences. A gentle message of
diversity and inclusion for young children, as well as a subtle nod
to gender fluidity, makes this a most unusual and modern Noah's Ark
story.
