This is an excellent work that shows design without falling off the Intelligent Design (ID) slope. Covering topics from beauty and animals to the human body and fossil layers, Burgess and McIntosh paint a wonderful picture of our God's order and incredible design that is brimming with irreducible complexities. I highly recommend reading this book with children as large, full-color pictures cover nearly every page.

We read this book daily as part of our Family Basket time. All of my children enjoyed the book. Some days the readings were a bit advanced for the younger children, but overall, we as a family enjoyed our daily reading in this book.
