Newtonian Physics for Babies by Chris Ferrie introduces Newton's three laws of motion. Although centuries old, Newton's laws are still used today to predict the motion of objects at the human scale.
With Newton's laws, we can do simple things like predict where a thrown ball will land all the way to complicated things like landing a man on the moon. And now baby will know them too!
This is the first in a series of books designed to stimulate your baby and introduce them to the world of science.

CHRIS FERRIE is an award-winning physicist and is the senior lecturer for Quantum Software and Information at the University of Technology Sydney. He has a Masters in Applied Mathematics, BMath in Mathematical Physics and a PhD in Applied Mathematics. He lives in Australia with his wife and children. He believes it is never too early to introduce small children to big ideas.
"Start 'em young with this STEM-centric board-book that promotes
science literacy by introducing concepts such as mass, net force
and gravity. " - Los Angeles Times
"Simple illustrations and simple explanations to launch your future
rocket scientist." - NPR, Science Friday
"Lively explorations of physics, technology, and space." - School
Library Journal
"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.)

"The Baby University board-book series is designed to teach infants
about the most fundamental basics of science. 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
"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
"Let's weigh in on gravity. The book keeps your little ones
interested as they learn that Sir Isaac Newton wrote the three laws
of motion. The apples do not float away but feels the force of
gravity once they fall off of a tree. The bright drawings draw your
child in as Chris uses easy to understand words to introduce your
child to Newtonian Physics. As Chris says, it only takes on small
spark to ignite a child's mind. This quality book is exactly what
we should feel our babies and children with. Hey, you might walk
away learning something.
Feel free to use demonstrations while explaining Newtonian Physics
to your little one. Every child loves a good item falling to the
ground!" - TheBabySpot.CA
