Ruth Spiro’s Baby Loves Science board books introduce complex STEM topics to babies and toddlers in a simplistic yet accurate manner appropriate for the very young. In Baby Loves Structural Engineering, a small child is pictured building with blocks. Cute, colorful drawings illustrate the different types of structures the toddler builds, alongside depictions of famous buildings that use the same engineering concepts. Related vocabulary is introduced in a way that any age reader can understand. When the child is shown building a house for the three little pigs, foundations, support, and force are some concepts that are introduced. Will the house bear the load of the wolf’s huffing and puffing?

If you like the way this book explains a complicated subject in a super simple way, check out the many other books in the Baby Loves Science Series. Gravity, photosynthesis, green energy, and paleontology are a few other topics that the author introduces. Don’t be surprised if the adult reader learns some STEM concepts too!
