I’m still selling Computer Engineering for Babies. And I just launched a new book called Simple Machines Made Simple on Kickstarter a month or two ago.
Both books are basically just simple interactive demos for kids and adults.

- nefrix 9mo agoI am commenting on this so i will fi d it easy when i will need to buy a present for one of my friends’ babies. :)
- anotherhue 9mo agoLiterally the first book I bought for my hellspawn. We had fun working out the mechanisms.
- 1-more 9mo agoBought probably 6 copies between the first and second. Love this book! First gets stuck in NOT mode sometimes but it’s chill.
- crobertsbmw 9mo agoYeah, I’ve improved it a lot, but a lot of the books from the run I did 18 months ago get confused on the cover page thinking it’s open to the NOT page.
- 1-more 9mo agoooooh what was the fix? It seems so hard to rely on light for the page numbers! My niece was just doing "For Big Babies" in a dim room and my brother in law had to point his flashlight at it to keep it on the current page.
- tyrust 9mo agoMy kid got a copy of your first book as a gift a couple years ago. It's really fun to have on the shelf. The buttons are so satisfyingly clicky. Thanks!
- crobertsbmw 9mo agoThanks for buying it!!
- ludicity 9mo agoI bought two copies of Computer Engineering For Babies for some close friends! They were absolutely delightful.
- jann 9mo agoI got gifted Computer Engineering for Babies and big Babies last Christmas in preparation for having our first child :) They are great!
- bunnybomb2 9mo agoOh man this sounds so cool!! Ive always wanted to make a childrens book.
- gustavoaca1997 9mo agoI always see your ads. My first baby is expected to be born next year and I cannot wait to buy it for her
- navaed01 9mo agoI have this book for my kid and love it!
- kelvindegrees 9mo agoOne of my favorites! The baby likes it. The grandparents are confused by it.
- cunac 9mo agoThis is insanely good. Can't wait for grandchild :)

- arthurjj 9mo agoIt makes me so happy to see this genre taking off. We did "ABCs of Programming" [1] when our son was 2 at least partially because there weren't any real kid's books talking about what "dad does all day". Funnily enough it wasn't selling that well until I posted an article [2] on HN about my experience writing it. Then it did steady business for a few years [1] https://www.amazon.com/dp/1548489778 https://www.amazon.com/dp/1548489778 [2] https://arthur-johnston.com/hacker_writes_a_childrens_book/ https://arthur-johnston.com/hacker_writes_a_childrens_book/
- BrokenCogs 9mo agoThis is amazing! Do you ever run a sale (christmas, boxing day, etc)?
- matart 9mo agoThank you! As it has become popular at baby showers to bring a book I always send my partner with the original 2. We have probably gifted 5 or 6 sets now. We are excited for the next version.
- kaeruct 9mo agoJust bought a German copy. Spanish would be nice as well :)
- thebiglebrewski 9mo agoMy nephew loves this book thank you for putting it into the world!
