WEE BILLY AND THE ARK

Joann Gilmartin is a classically trained opera singer and Celtic recording artist. She was born in Glasgow,and now splits her time between her native Scotland and the USA. Wee Billy is based on her own childhood memories and experiences growing up. Joann conducts reading workshops of her "Wee Billy" children's books at Celtic events and also in schools and Sunday Schools throughout the USA. WEE BILLY is an eight year old boy living in Glasgow, Scotland. This book is one in a series of books about Wee Billy and his Christian upbringing. The young reader will not only have the positive messages from scripture retold in an easy to understand way and have traditional family values reinforced but also learn about life, customs and worship in another country. Each book in the series begins by exploring an event that happened in Wee Billy’s day and then linking it to the dream he has that night where he travels back in time to participate in events from the Bible. In WEE BILLY AND THE ARK, his family celebrates his birthday with a trip to the zoo which later serves as the catalyst in his dream where he becomes a living part of the story of Noah and the Ark.
