How Many Cubits Tall Are You?

How long is a cubit anyway? Now you can see for yourself! While visiting the bookstore make sure to measure yourself against our chart to find out how tall you are in cubits, the measurement system used for Noah’s Ark. You can even take home your own Noah’s Cubit or Construction Cubit unit from the Dragon Hall Bookstore and see how every day items measure up.
