It Couldn't Just Happen by Lawrence Richards



From the publisher:

Kids are daily exposed to the theory of evolution by the media and public schools. It’s not safe to assume that your kids will reject that theory. It’s up to us as parents and Christian leaders to make sure our children know the truth about the creation of the world. With thousands of evidences to prove He created and sustains the universe, It Couldn’t Just Happen will fascinate kids with fun activities and examples of God’s marvelous works.

I was really excited when I saw this book on Booksneeze.com because as a teacher I want books that will help me teach about Evolution and Creation. This book is full of color photographs that will catch the eye of kids. This book is not for younger children to read on their own, but it can easily be read to them and discussed. It is a great resource for parents, teachers, etc who want a solid resource to begin talking to kids about Creation and Evolution. Older kids could read this on their own and even adults would find this book interesting and engaging. The book doesn’t assume you know all the scientific words and evidence and does a good job of explaining different terms and ideas.

Also, I loved that the last section was on the validity of the Bible.

I would highly recommend this book.

Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
