Posted in Product Reviews for Homeschooling

The first Creation Science book I purchased for homeschooling was Creation Science: A Study Guide to Creation by Felice Gerwitz and Jill Whitlock; I learned as much as my son did!  When I heard Mrs. Gerwitz was teaming up with Cindy Rushton for an online Creation Science Seminar, I just knew we had to attend!  My 10-year-old daughter and I enjoyed the class immensely.  Then, to top things off, we received a copy of The Missing Link: FOUND by Mrs. Gerwitz and her daughter to review as part of "TOS Homeschool Crew."

My daughter read the book in 2 days; I think it would have only taken her one day, but I must have had some other activities she had to do!  It took me longer, as I have a few more demands on my time!  The book was an easy read; it had action and adventure, and we both learned more about the debate between Creation and evolution.  I liked that the story centered around 3 cousins:  there were no boyfriend/girlfriend situations, no giggling about other characters being cute; and I appreciated that prayer and talking about the Lord were normal, every day parts of their lives. 

My daughter loves the Jonathan Park CD's, so I asked her for some comparison and contrast.  All I really got from that request was that both stories have a character who believes in evolution, and the main characters are trying to tell him about Creation and witness about God.  That works for me!  I think that is teaching her something valuable, in-line with the Bible!
