It Couldn't Just Happen: Knowing the Truth About God's Awesome Creation is a book that is geared for older children to answer questions about the creation of the world from a Christian perspective. Children today are bombarded with a lot information that may or may not be true about the creation of the world and in his book, Richards addresses questions and false information from a biblical view. Some of the questions he addresses are:
"Did Earth begin with a 'Big Bang' cosmic explosion?"
"Does science contradict the Bible?"
"What happened to dinosaurs?"
"Is there life on other planets?"
"Did we evolve from apes?"
"What makes my body work on its own?"
I enjoyed reading this book and getting a taste for issues to come with my own children. I think this book is geared more for upper elementary or middle school aged children. I was hoping this book might provide conversation starters for my own children, but I don't think they are quite ready for the content of this book, as some of the information is technical and a bit dry for younger readers. I received a complimentary copy of this book from booksneeze in exchange for an honest review.
sounds like a lot of adults could stand to read this book too. I hear these kind of questions from people fairly regularly.
