Need a Book Recommendation

[Estellea]

I would like a children's book, preferably geared towards the 5-10 year old age bracket about evolution and creationism. My goal is to teach evolution at that level but also explain the who and whys of why some believe in creationism or ID. Thanks in advance.

Written by my mate. It's the best. :) There's other stuff at her web site (http://www.ellenjackson.net/). Bonus: picture of a cute dog.

Thanks Sez. So far I've ordered the 2 'Tree' books that are on Blues list. Now to tackle the whole creationism thing, le sigh.
