| Book review: Dinosaurs for Kids by Ken Ham | anonymous. 2011.
CS Dialogue 38(2):2. CELD ID 24743Abstract Few youngsters can resist the excitement of those scary, but mysterious creatures called dinosaurs. Naturally there are lots of books about dinosaurs. Most are written with a young audience in mind. Some, of course, are better than others. While most of the dinosaur books published today feature wonderful illustrations, many of these books unfortunately interpret these creatures in an evolutionary context. Still, there are a number of dinosaur titles which promote a young earth view. Within this number, there are books with different themes. Some of them discuss specific dinosaurs in some detail, where the fossils are found, the relative depth of the rocks in which they are found, how much of the skeleton has been found, anatomical details and possible lifestyles, and so on. These books generally also include chapters on the Biblical context of dinosaur occurrences. Then there are other books which more fully discuss the Scriptural time frame when dinosaurs lived. Details concerning specific dinosaurs are in such cases, more incidental.
