5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive perspective on Noah's Flood!, June 3, 2008

This review is from: Dry Bones and Other Fossils (Hardcover)

This book is perspective-broadening. It is a wonderful presentation harmonizing Noah's Flood with dinosaur fossil evidence. It is written in a way that is easy to consider and comprehend for children 9-12 or for grown ups who are just beginning to study creation from a scientific view point. It truly is a well done introduction. One is left understanding why the evolutionists are dismissing the inaccuracies of uranium testing and why they are overlooking the obvious sediment evidence.

For those who want to further research fossil evidence in favor of the flood and creation there is a suggested readings list within this book towards the back.

Its only brief weak area is one sentence on page 56. The so-called plesiosaur-like carcass of a basking shark caught by the Japanese fishermen in 1977 looks as if it had been rotting for weeks when you see the actual picture of it. This book is not about present day dinosaur sightings however. It is about post-flood evidence supporting the Christian timeline of our earth. The factual and logical way it is presented is just fabulous!

5.0 out of 5 stars A marvelous children's book, June 16, 2011

By 

Veritas (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dry Bones and Other Fossils (Hardcover)

This is a children's book that I read aloud to our children. They thoroughly enjoyed it as did I. A couple of years later, I had them read it again on their own. It is written from a Biblical perspective and makes understanding fossils very easy.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Dry Bones and Other Fossils (Hardcover)

I am a homeschooled child and part of my science was this book. I thought it to be VERY HELPFUL!!! It was easy for me to understand and all the harder words in the book the main character at that time will ask. Still I would recomend this for kids from about 2nd grade and up. It was wonderful to learn about the dinosaurs from a christian point of veiw and I personally liked it and will look forward to reading it again and again in my own time.(plus it is very intresting and not boring like most textbooks that people use these ways) Recomended for Christians and Catholics (or other people who belive in Jesus, God, and the holy spirit.) because mentions things in Bible alot. THANK YOU GARY E AND MARY M PARKER (AND THEIR CHILDREN)!!!!!!! (=
