Noah's family and all the animals went into the ark. God shut the door.
Then it rained and rained for 40 days and 40 nights! Water covered everything. But inside, everyone was safe.
At last the rain stopped. Noah sent out a dove, and it came back with a green leaf. Dry land! Everyone came out, and Noah said thank you to God.
