Dinosaurs: Stars of the Show.

Dinosaurs: Stars of the Show. Dinosaurs: Stars of the Show Amie Zordel, author Joanna Borrero, illustrator Master Books c/o New Leaf Publishing Group PO Box 726, Green Forest, AR 72638 9780890515464, $12.99 www.newleafpress.net 1-800-999-3777 Dinosaurs: Stars of the Show is a fundamentalist Christianpicturebook that teaches children to literally interpret the Bible. Whena young girl sees a television program claiming that dinosaurs livedmillions of years ago, she consults the Holy Bible, in which God'sword clearly states that all existence is no older than six thousandyears--and therefore, dinosaurs and humans once lived side by side."God's Word is clear, if we just try, / to search theScriptures with an open eye. / All answers are there for you to find. /God gives wisdom as you use your mind." The result is a ramrodstrict lesson about focusing solely on the Bible for all of one'sanswers, and unilaterally speaking out against any information that maycontradict it.
