About the Book



"Quantum Physics for Babies by Chris Ferrie is a colorfully simple introduction to the principle which gives quantum physics its name. Baby will find out that energy is "quantized" and the weird world of atoms never comes to a stand still."--



Book Synopsis



Fans of Chris Ferrie's Organic Chemistry for Babies, Rocket Science for Babies, and 8 Little Planets will love this introduction to quantum physics for babies and toddlers!

It only takes a small spark to ignite a child's mind.

Written by an expert, Quantum Physics for Babies is a colorfully simple introduction to the principle that gives quantum physics its name. Babies (and grownups!) will discover that the wild world of atoms never comes to a standstill. With a tongue-in-cheek approach that adults will love, this installment of the Baby University board book series is the perfect way to introduce basic concepts to even the youngest scientists. After all, it's never too early to become a quantum physicist!

If you're looking for the perfect quantum physics gift, quantum physics book, or more Baby University books for your little one, look no further! Quantum Physics for Babies offers fun early learning for your little scientist!



Review Quotes



"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

"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

"We were intrigued how Chris would master introducing quantum physics to such young minds but we were impressed! Neutrons, protons, atoms, electrons are explained as simply as possible. The drawings are again so easy to understand. This kept our three year old's interest right until the end and she was happy to learn that she is now on her way to being a quantum physicist! There are few things cute than hearing a child under 5 saying quantum physicist." - TheBabySpot.CA

"Lively explorations of physics, technology, and space." - School Library Journal

"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

"Ferrie delivers a cleanly designed introduction to how matter and energy interact on an atomic level." - Publishers Weekly

Poorly Executed and Boring

This book has so much wasted potential. As a concept, it’s great. But this was an absolute bore to read. My toddler LOVES books. I mean he REALLY loves them. This book, and the others that came in the set he was gifted, are (unsurprisingly) collecting dust on his bookshelf. Don’t waste your money, I’m sure there are other STEM board books out there that are actually written with young children in mind. But these are what I would consider a cash grab; low effort writing and illustrations with a flashy title to dupe parents and gift givers into handing over their hard earned money.

My one-year-old has opinions

My kiddo (14 months old) LOVES this series and will ask us to read them to him over and over again. Except for this one. I have no idea why! He always try’s to shut the book or push it away. I don’t know why this one is different from the rest, but I know he would not recommend it - he’d tell you to try the chemistry or robotics book, haha
