Book Synopsis



A timely and simple explanation of the science behind pandemics, from the #1 science author for kids. The perfect tool to explain current events to toddlers, or give as a funny keepsake or gift for babies born during the COVID-19 pandemic!

Pandemics for Babies is an engaging, basic introduction for youngsters (and grownups!) to the complex concepts like transmission, quarantine, and social distancing. Full of scientific information and written by experts, this newest installment of the Baby University board book series is perfect for enlightening the next generation of geniuses about the science of pandemics.

"Explaining and understanding the COVID-19 pandemic can be difficult for a variety of reasons. Explaining it so it can be understood by children can be even harder... Carefully written to explain concepts without stigmatizing any individuals or groups, [this book] includes steps that children can take after reading, like washing their hands and wearing a mask. Plus, the books end on positive messages, and use colorful illustrations to provide visuals to complex, heavy topics."--Drexel Now

Chris Ferrie books are a staple in my toddler’s library. One of his first books was Organic Chemistry for Babies by Chris Ferrie (my husband is an organic Chemist and it’s so sweet watching him read that to our son), so we just keep collecting his books. The art in his books is always so fun, and the stories are quick and easy to read. My toddler loves following along and pointing out the pictures (and with this one he says “oh no!” when he points to a sick person in the book 😭). Love these books!

Very underwhelming

It's clear the authors tried to push out something fast when the pandemic started. The words are far too complicated for babies, and it doesn't read very well generally. The art is poor as well: solid white background, and just some random circles with eyes and, occasionally, masks.

Love this book! It’s the perfect book to explain to a young toddler about this pandemic and the importance of why we stay home. I bought it for my daughter’s birthday as a memory that her 2nd birthday was in the middle of a pandemic
