Ok submitted by VanCancue on July 1, 2018, 6:40pm The younger children could not relate. Unless I make a craft project out of ti. Even then I doubt it.
General Relativity submitted by JY 2005 on June 14, 2020, 7:18pm A very simple explanation of general relativity.
I May Not Be Smarter Than a Baby submitted by Meginator on June 19, 2021, 11:36am Like the other book in this series, this board book uses bright, bold illustrations and very simple prose to illustrate and explain complex physics principles. The concept alone will be enough for readers with a certain sense of humor, and the baby I read this to seemed to enjoy it well enough, but I’m not sure I have a better sense of general relativity after reading this. In fact, I think I might be more confused. We’ll have to check back in a few years to see how the baby’s knowledge of general relativity is coming along and whether the book does indeed make more sense to her than it does to this puzzled adult.
