Review: Great Book : First, a word to the negative reviewers. I'm reminded of a quote I heard a few years ago, on another topic, but it fits very well here - "everyone is entitled to their own opinion, as long as it's exactly the same as my own." I don't know how the authors could have made it any more obvious on the front cover that this book was written from a Christian point of view. You were fairly warned, so why did you even read it if you're going to be so shocked and offended at any mention of Christian ideas? I've read books on evolution, but I've never given a poor review to any of them based solely on the fact that the author doesn't believe the same thing I do, let alone such insulting and hate filled comments I've seen for nearly every review I've read for books with a creationist viewpoint. On to the book... I thought it was very well written. The illustrations were nicely done, and I loved the little dodo bird with his comments throughout the book. Part two is the section for parents and older children that serves as sort of a mini-commentary on the first eleven chapters of the book of Genesis. Part three is a repeat of part one, with the pictures in black and white, meant to be used as a coloring book.
