Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A rarely seen look at answering the questions associated with these 'terrible lizards' from a creationist perspective.
Internationally known author and speaker Ken Ham brings a 'new way of thinking' to the table for Christians, emphasizing that in order to properly understand our world we must very first look at Scripture. By going to the Bible very first for answers, we begin to understand that the dinosaurs were alongside man from the beginning.
Complete with stunning, computer-generated illustrations of dinosaurs, this book promises to be a mainstay of any family library.

I gave this one star because the Author took this 100% seriously. I, on the other hand, don't take anything on this anti-evolutionary propaganda seriously. In fact, I read these books as comedy and I laughed myself silly page after page.
This book is only about 95 pages long; the other 95 pages are the appendix. You'd think with an appendix that long the book would have been a lot longer. I must quote another reviewer at this juncture: "I'm sure glad this non-historian wrote this book"... to teach me about history. I don't think I've read a book that has more flawed research in my entire life. The author even goes so far as to quote his previous book as proof to back up what he's saying in this one. Was he sitting there typing this up and saying to himself; "oh man, I was so right about this!" I mean really, what kind of a scholar logically would do this? If you're going to reference your own book, reference it in the main body, not in the appendix as if it's some hard fact discovery. It's not; it's your little pet theory.
I should give Ham credit in one regard that this book does have facts that are dead on in terms of dinosaurs. And he does display some sound logic at parts, such as the average size of the animals on the ark. Even though that average works out to be about the size of a sheep, doesn't discount the fact that dinosaurs are huge and actually working out space is a problem. Although he did provide a plausible theory that they could have had baby dinosaurs on board instead of full grown. I actually agreed with that, if I were to support the dinosaurs on the ark theory in the very first place. At least he had a plausible explanation if dinosaurs existed during Noah's time.
I'm honestly not sure what's crazier, that this book was written, or that people actually take it as being fully correct. I looked up the part where Ham references the existing tissue in fossilized bone to support his theory. He says that this would be impossible. However, if you look up the person who discovered this you will find that she doesn't support the creationism theory. In fact, she's not a leading expert on dinosaurs, her field is genetics. So when you read these books and people say "scientists don't have a response to this" is because it's too soon in their research. And the scientist in question has said in an interview that she thinks this will help us learn more about the fossilization process, not prove that dinosaurs lived 6,000 years ago. Fossilization isn't an exact science and the variance of materials involved DOES matter. Unlike what Ham would want you to believe.
The part that really killed me in his proof against evolutionary theory is that he says its possible dinosaurs may have evolved after they got off the ark. Genius! There's nothing like supporting a part of one theory to support your own. This book has endless quotable parts for humorous discussions!
If you're looking to read an excellent "scientific" comedy, then this is surely the book for you. However, keep in mind the author thinks this is all totally real and is even funding his own "dinosaur park".

The only mystery here needing solving is how can seemingly rational, adult individuals believe this nonsense? A Biblical view of human and animal natural history in no way necessitates swallowing this drivel. There isn't one shred of evidence to even suggest that dinosaurs and humans ever co-existed. Not to mention that there is copious evidence that a global flood never occurred. "In the beginning, God created...." is something I truly believe,...just not the ICR or AIG version!

It takes more faith to believe in secular views on this topic than biblical truth!!

This offering for Ken Ham for children is full of young earth misconceptions and bad science. To get a full, 18-page review, visit the Book Review section at Answers In Creation (www.answersincreation.org).

To all the reviews here that resort to "name-calling" and "Christian-bashing", instead of addressing specific points made in the book: Me thinks thou doest protest too much!
