Aloha2U Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I believe Answers in Genesis has some great books about dinosaurs to choose from... perhaps you'll find what you're looking for by checking out their online store and doing a search for dinosaur. :001_smile: HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommy2BeautifulGirls Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 The Great Dinosaur Mystery and the Bible by Paul S. Taylor Oh, yeah, and that one we just took back. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spock Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Any recommendations? TIA Kris We have Dinosaurs by Design, The Great Dinosaur Mystery and the Bible, and Dinosaurs and the Bible, as well as D is for Dinosaur. Our favorite for actually learning about dinosaurs is Dinosaurs by Design. The others focus primarily on creation v. evolution, and explain where dinosaurs would fit in with a young earth creation model, while including tidbits of information about dinosaurs. Dinosaurs by Design, on the other hand, focuses on actual information about dinosaurs (from a young earth perspective), while also covering creation v. evolution. For somewhat older children (maybe 5th grade and up?), Dinosaurs and Creation is also good. We supplement all of these with secular books from the library.

FO4UR Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 The Great Dinosaur Mystery and the Bible by Paul S. Taylor :iagree: and, http://www.amazon.com/Bones-Other-Fossils-Gary-Parker/dp/0890512035 This one is frustrating (for me) as a read-aloud, but ds6 asks for it a LOT.

athena1277 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I highly recommend "Dinosaurs Unleashed" by Kyle Butt and Eric Lyons. It has lots of great dinosaur info (like how big, what they ate, etc), but is also gives powerful evidence that they did not live billions of years ago. Check out the link, they have sample pages. http://www.apologeticspress.org/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/2_5/products_id/7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2att Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I have a book called "Dinosaurs: Exploring the Scientific Mysteries of God's Creation" by Michael and Caroline Carroll. It is heavy on facts and approaches dinosaur discovery from a God's creation perspective, but does not focus on young earth/old earth. Here's a statement from the book: "Devout people sometimes don't agree about how old the earth is. The important thing to remember is that God is in control. He is the Creator and designer of everything. Our God is great--powerful enough to make the world in six days--and vast enough to make it over billions of years." I appreciate this perspective, but YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
