The Adventures of Arkie the Archaeopteryx

Newspapers, magazines, television, books and schools constantly present children with an evolutionary perspective of the natural world. In this book, the title character is an extinct bird with features that some have said proves it shared a common ancestor with reptiles. If different animals share similar features, does that mean they share a common ancestor as Darwin said? Join Arkie as he flies through an ancient jungle and meets an array of unique creatures that are also not missing links, including a walking fish, a hairy frog, a fuzzy dinosaur. As Arkie explores the jungle, he comes to realize that many animals do not fit the typical mode of man-made classification. Brilliantly illustrated, this exciting adventure helps children to look at the natural world through a biblical lens and shows them that the bizarre traits of some animals can be explained with a creationist framework.
