Look at Blue Dragons, Red Pandas, Hoopoes & More!

  

From time to time over the past couple years I have written about the Life on the Goldilocks Planet books - these books are not only interesting and fun, but they are a terrific tool to help you as a parent or grandparent hand down confident faith as they will help you talk about and learn some important "whys" - why we are able to believe God is real and the God and science DO go together! Today I thought I'd let you know about the animals you will find in the book - Blue Dragons, Red Pandas, Hoopoes & More! . . . 

  • Blue Dragons
  • Honey Bees
  • Carrier Crabs
  • Koalas
  • Manatees
  • Narwhals
  • Okapis
  • Platypuses
  • Red Pandas
  • Sloths
  • Hummingbird Bobtail Squids
  • Hoopoes
All of these are real, interesting, and even surprising animals - might there be some here you have never heard of before? Along with learning about these animals, you will get to work together on fun projects including - Elephant Toothpaste, Lime-Butter-Honey Cookies, Air Cannon, Camo Flowers, Fire-proof Balloon, make your own Fluorescent Crystals, tie-dye, and a project to make your own Manatee to mention just some of the activities. Quotes from John Polkinghorne, Robert Jastrow, Francis Collins, Sir Isaac Newton, Lord William Kelvin, Anthony Hewish, and more will leave you thinking and talking.

Look what people are saying about this book . . . 

Lynda is a genius when it comes to bringing God's Word alive to children. She is a grandmother who understands the importance of the role she plays in her grandchildren's lives. Her books are made for grandparents to open God's Word through animals and living things which interest little kids. and big kids too.

Psalm 19 reminds us if we study creation, we see God more clearly. Ive never seen a book as remarkable as this one which ties exploration of Gods creation with the language of children and activity, to produce a compelling statement about the majesty of God. When I read it, I feel like Im somehow entering a new world. Im sure itll be an incredible resource.

I LOVE this little book you have created. What a great and powerful tool for shaping young minds to see and acknowledge the truth about Gods creation. Well done. Every parent and grandparent ought to have this tool in their toolkit. This is a marvelous tool I want to let every grandparent know about. Thank you for taking time with your grandsons to create this extraordinary piece. While disagreeing with Lyndas position that science shows how God used evolution to create everything, I still find these books a valuable resource for parents and grandparents.

What a crazy Covid time for our planet! With everything seemingly spinning out of control right now, its fascinating scientists call Earth the Goldilocks planet. For life here to exist here, everything has to be just right! When everything crashes in around us and nothing makes sense anymore, our Creator promises this: And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them (Romans 8:28). This foundational truth offers the hope I want my little granddaughter Cadence to treasure. Thats why Lyndas new book is fun to recommend. It creatively weaves together science and animals to teach Gods purposeful plan and shows itjust right! Enjoy! I love what you put together! Weve discovered at Group the power of animals and kids too!
