Noah's Ark books

I know this is a strange one but if anyone will know, it's the mumsnetters!

We are having an exhibition this summer targeted at under 7s called 'Noah's Ark' but are having trouble finding the right way to mention God/Allah etc so no faith and no non-believer is upset.

Does anyone know of any books about Noah's Ark that either don't mention God or find a way of telling the story in a multi-faith way?

I can't help with a book telling the story multi-faith but if you want to see the story told from an Islamic point of view have a look at www.simplyislam.com. They sell a large range of childrens books, including Noah's Ark (£5.99). (For the purposes of research, I think you might even be able to view the pages without buying the book!). I've bought quite a few things from them and can recommend them as a fast a reliable company.
Hope this helps.

There is a great one written in verse by the poet, Roger McGough (not sure if correct spelling of his surname but can't check as book is in ds' room and he's asleep).

There is a very good book called How the World Began by Andrew Matthews , we have it at home. It was sent to dd1 by mil, and tells lots of stories from around the world about the time of creation. It was published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1995.The isbn is 075001606X. Dd was sent it about 3 years ago, so she was about 7, maybe younger. Dd2 loves it now, it's full of colourful pictures to go with the stories.

I did a search for it and it seems to be out of print, but this bookshop will do a search for you, and it seems to have other appropriate books too. Hth.
