I have just discoverd a Wonderful E-Book that teaches All about the Komodo Dragons of  Komodo Island, Rinca Island, the western end of Flores, Gili Dasami Island and Gilai Motang Island in Indonesia.  This book goes into so many intresting facts about this Dragons life. Here are somethings that this book goes into such as.....


  • Amazing Pictures !
  • Shows the eating habits and the digestive process of the Komodo Dragon
  • Shows it's Life Survival Skills
  • Shows it's hunting habits and it being prey( how it survives)
  • Intresting Facts about the Dragon's Anatomy for example it's digestive system." Did you know that this Dragon smells threw it's tounge ?
  • Wonderful Vocabulary ( great for science reports and narrations )
  • Awesome enternet links
  • It shows how this  Cold Blodded animal  moves around to moderate it's own body tempeture.
  • It shows the habitat that this amazing creature lives in
  • The reproduction of the Komodo Dragon

This book could be encorperated so well in your homeschool for science or geography easily.

That sounds great. The only problem for me is that I'm too old-fashioned. I love the computer for some things, but a book? It needs to be paper, I need to feel it in my hands, smell it, touch it.
Call me crazy, but there you have it. :>
Really, though, it does sounds great. If only it was available in hardcopy!
Have a great day, eh?

Ok mine is not a creationist view science book, it's a video. Well, videos. My children (and us too) are addicted to Kent Hovind DVDs. If you go to www.drdino.com I think you can view the videos. They are awesome. Dr. Kent Hovind also has other homeschool videos like biology, electricity, algebra and even college courses. The best trait if all is that he does not copyright his stuff because he wants us to copy it and give it out for free to other people so they know the truth too.

Aug. 13, 2006 - I got to see one of these.

Posted by REInvestor
The Philadelphia Zoo some years ago when we lived in Phila. had a Komodo Dragon for a summer and we got to see it. It was quite fascinating to see this creature. Prior to that I had no exposure to anything about these animals.
