Books Add Value to Life

Introductory

Small boys love stories about large earth moving equipment. They love to look at the pictures, identify the types of machine and hear the stories again and again. Other children love to identify dinosaur pictures or birds. Even long after the children have grown up, they value these books as important mementos.

There is no doubt that books foster learning and remembering. Today there are many books, even books for learning, that are available in an online format. But their impact is not the same as a hard copy book!

As part of our mission, Creation Science Association of Alberta has always sold good quality books on science and origins. The few titles available long decades ago were nothing like the colourful attractive and informative books available today. The consumer has a cornucopia of wonderful books from which to choose.

In this context, for example, the Institute for Creation Research has recently published smaller, cheaper science books for youngsters so that families can afford a variety of topics and titles. For example, the Heroes of Creation Science booklets on Johannes Kepler (astronomy), Isaac Newton (physics) and Louis Pasteur (medicine and microbiology) introduce youngsters ages 8 – 11 to foundational concepts and their Christian implications in these disciplines.

The God Created Series books introduce children ages 6-8 to ways that we see the wisdom of God displayed in the biology of monkeys, insects and T. rex. There are other titles in this series too, but we have not purchased them yet.

Lastly in the Creation Collection we find small books that provide interesting information on volcanoes, sea creatures, human origins as well as Universe: Surveying God’s Created Cosmos, and Solar System: Proclaiming God’s Heavenly Design. Apparently, there are fascinating recent discoveries in these fields which high school and adult readers will enjoy. How do these recent discoveries display the amazing work of God? Read and find out.
