- "A teasing, knockabout version of the building of Noah's ark that has surprising vitality ... The rapidfire interplay of Biblical, Egyptian, and traditional elements with a quiet wit ... is quite arresting: neither reverent nor irreverent, this reflects a wonderfully idiosyncratic creative energy." --Kirkus Reviews
- "In exchange for room on the Ark for himself and his wife, Reuben strikes a bargain with Noah's second son to bring back the lions and sacred cat from Kemi (present-day Egypt). ... Reuben's quest is the centerpiece yet Miss Harris has also woven a background of history, myth, and Biblical lore. ..." --Oona Sullivan, NY Times 1970-04-12 pBR14
