How Mrs Monkey Missed the Ark by Judith Kerr
When it's time for the animals to board Noah's ark, Mrs Monkey isn't ready - she wants to collect a nice mixture of fruit to eat on the trip. But suddenly there is water everywhere and the ark has floated away! Animals, angels and even God appear in this dazzling story, now featuring a spectacular four-page fold-out, from the best-selling author of "The Tiger Who Came To Tea" and "Mog the Forgetful Cat."Judith Kerr OBE was born in Berlin. Her family left Germany in 1933 to escape the rising Nazi party, and came to England. She studied at the Central School of Art and later worked as a scriptwriter for the BBC.
Judith married the celebrated screenwriter Nigel Kneale in 1954. She left the BBC to look after their two children, who inspired her first picture book, The Tiger Who Came to Tea. Published in 1968 and never out of print in the fifty years since, it has become a much-loved classic and perennial bestseller.
Judith was awarded the Booktrust Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016, and in 2019 was named Illustrator of the Year at the British Book Awards. Judith died in May 2019 at the age of 95, and her stories continue to entertain and delight generations of children.
