Welcome To Charlie's Ark

Charlie's Ark is about a five year old boy and his toy-box, in the shape of an ark, in which he keeps his many animals that all come to life in his imagination (or do they?) A rainbow is always associated with an ark and that is why all the animals that "live" in the ark have rainbow top-knots, manes and tails.

One never sees Charlie's face, or indeed that of his sister Sally, which adds to the air of mystery.

Created by award winning Illustrator Mike Payne and Illustrated by Adam Pescott & Mike Payne

Mike wrote a poem about the rainbow in Charlie's Ark and what the colours mean. Here it is:

The Second Collection of Charlie’s Ark stories is available now!
Now available from Play.com , all good on-line stores and W H Smith Stores is the Second Collection of Charlie’s Ark children’s stories. Now released, this delightful collection of stories is also available for digital download.
As with the First Collection of Charlie’s Ark - already hugely popular, this CD Album comes with a booklet of all eight stories all beautifully illustrated by Adam Pescott. Created by award-winning British illustrator & writer Mike Payne, Charlie's Ark stories have captured the imagination of children the length and breadth of Britain, and will equally thrill youngsters around the world. Some of the reactions of happy parents: "My son has already memorised most of the stories… a big hit!" "It is being played constantly" "The stories are lovely and so calming - perfect" "My daughter takes great pleasure in reciting the stories to us" The power and magnetism of Charlie’s Ark stories can perhaps best be illustrated by the in-car format, where the incidence of "are we there yet?" kids' boredom threshold has been virtually eliminated!
