THREE ARKS come to mind. The first, and most famous, is "Noah's" ark found in Genesis chapters 6-8.

The OTHER TWO are the arks "of the Covenant" made by Moses and the Israelites in the wilderness. Incidents regarding these arks span several books throughout the Old Testament [with occasional mention of them made in the New]... with the FIRST "Ark of the Covenant" first mentioned in Exodus 25:10:

"And they shall make an ARK of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. And THOU SHALT OVERLAY IT WITH PURE GOLD, WITHIN AND WITHOUT SHALT THOU OVERLAY IT..." (Ex.25:10-11).

God commanded Moses to construct a SECOND ark [plain] just out of WOOD that wasn't overlaid with gold, later after the SECOND SET of the Ten Commandments were written with the finger of God that Moses smashed to pieces.

"At that time the LORD said unto me, 'Hew thee two tables of stone LIKE UNTO THE FIRST, and come up unto Me into the mount, and MAKE THEE AN ARK OF WOOD. And I will write on the tables the Words that were in the FIRST TABLES which thou brakest, and THOU SHALT PUT THEM IN THE ARK. And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed TWO TABLES OF STONE LIKE UNTO THE FIRST, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand. And He wrote on the tables, ACCORDING TO THE FIRST WRITING, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, which the LORD spake unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them unto me. And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and PUT THE TABLES IN THE ARK WHICH I MADE; and THERE THEY BE, as the LORD COMMANDED ME." (Deut.10:1-5)

Moses' mother put him in another "ark," of course [Ex.2:3] ... but these are some of the places to read a "story about an ark."
