Yellow & Pink

This book, in a very easy to read foremat, explains how ridiculous it is to think that the puppets were just haphazardly made by chance. It mirrors the story of creation and how just as ridiculous it is to think that human beings were just formed out of some big glob or something. It really gives credence to the idea of a master Creator. I loved the book. A great one for children and adults alike.

I loved the book. Try reading it aloud with an English accent. There is no mention of creation in this book, though the absurdity of evolution is obvious. The evolutionist faithful can see it clearly enough.

Great lesson for both children and adults - all things being equal, the simplest solution is probably the best... a must read for everyone and their christian friends...

It is a fun book. It isn't preachy. It isn't overt. It isn't a lot of things, but it will make your kids think. If you are of the evolution variety, it is a good opportunity to show the differences between this situation and nature. If you are of the creationist variety, it is a good opportunity to show the similarities between this situation and nature. But to dislike this book because because you think it is propaganda? That's silly, and probably indicates that we shouldn't examine issues critically, no matter what we believe. I enjoyed it. Your kids will too.

Our five year has hundreds of picture books. But, every night since we purchased this book, she's asked us to read it again. And when we're done, she yells, "Again!" We're happy to oblige, because it's a delightful book. Steig manages to capture complex, quirky moods and expressions in his marionette characters with an unparalleled economy and simplicity. The dialogue is witty and urbane, without leaving the preschooler behind. The story touches delicately on the perennial and perhap most interesting philosophical question we can ask: Why are we here?
