Ogden Nash is in top form with this rollicking poem about an aardvark who boards a boat to escape the biblical flood. Arrogant and vain Aardvark wins few friends among the other animals squeezed aboard the crowded vessel--until he uses his tongue to save the ark and all of its passengers.<BR /><BR />Nash&rsquo;s wit and whimsy shine through this re-imagining of Noah&rsquo;s Ark. The delightful illustrations by Wendy Wilson paired with Nash&rsquo;s quotable verse will put a twinkle in the eyes of the young and the young-at-heart alike.
