Review Quotes
" Lively explorations of physics, technology, and space." -- School Library Journal
" Physicist and father Chris Ferrie knows it's never too soon to learn Newton's three laws of motion or Einstein's theory of general relativity. His board books are illustrated with eye-catching graphics for baby geniuses and written with a tongue in cheek humour for their adult friends, who might also learn a thing or two about aerospace engineering." -- Plenty Magazine
" Whether you're expecting an amazing bundle of joy, or already have one or more, these new books by Chris Ferrie are perfect" -- Kelly's Thoughts on Things
"A great way to introduce young children to important ideas! General Relativity for Babies gives understandable explanations for big ideas while building foundational vocabulary about general relativity. My little guy was very intrigued by this board book! " -- iHeartLiteracy
"In this board book series, Ferrie makes his knowledge accessible to the youngest of readers--and probably some adults, too... the subject material will certainly be enjoyable for trendy caretakers to read aloud. (And the pictures of babies chewing on the covers are going to be #instaworthy.)" -- Shelf Awareness for Readers
"Simple illustrations and simple explanations to launch your future rocket scientist." -- NPR, Science Friday
"Start 'em young with this STEM-centric board-book that promotes science literacy" -- Los Angeles Times
"This series is entirely age-appropriate and baby-accessible, featuring bright colors and simple sentence structure; it's just that instead of teaching words like "hippopotamus" they teach words like "electron". A wonderful way to help stimulate interest in math and science from an extremely early age, the Baby University series is highly recommended, especially for library collections intended for pre-Kindergarten children." -- Midwest Book Review

Maybe more amusing for parent than baby, like a conversation piece in your baby’s library - I can’t imagine a baby getting excited about the text or images in this book. I got the whole series and my baby is an avid read-alouder who brings me books from her little library to read her constantly … she has not once picked up a single book out of the series and when I take them out to read she toddles away from me. Maybe she will grow into them but they are not lyrical or eye catching so I imagine not
