Ham, Ken. Dinosaurs for Kids. Green Forest, AR: Master Books, 2009.
What child isn’t
fascinated by dinosaurs, especially boys? Ham has done a masterful job introducing
children to the various dinosaurs hand in paw/hoof with humans only thousands
of years ago. Written from the perspective of a young earth scientist this
volume is both a tool for apologetics and evangelism. Using the F’s of dinosauria, Ham tells the
story of dinosaurs and the world and presents the gospel in the process. God
formed dinosaurs on days 5 and 6, depending on whether they were sea or
land. Regardless, they walked the earth
along with Adam and Eve and other humans.
The fall and subsequently the flood likewise affected dinosaurs. At the time of the Ice Age, many of them
faded from the earth. Scientific
discoveries have led to dinosaurs being found and the realization that they
were real creatures, not mythical beings, like Dino on the Flintstones. There
is much fiction surrounding creation in evolutionary accounts, but the truth of
creation is contained in God’s Word, which Ham refers to as the “history book
of the universe.” Ham also provides “fast facts” and information about the
major dinosaurs. This book is well illustrated.
Under the direction of a teacher, it could be used in any school
setting, due to the facts contained in it.
