I wanted this book as my husband is an engineer and I thought it would be something fun he could read to our kids since it's a topic he's passionate about. Obviously this is an engineering ABC book so some of the words are bigger and a bit more complicated then simply A is for Apple, E is for Elephant.
What I really loved is the first page has the letter really big with what it is for example: P is for Pulley. Then on the next page is a bright and colorful picture and description of what a pulley is: A pulley is a type of simple machine. Pulleys use wheels and rope to make lifting heavy objects much easier. I thought this was wonderful that they describe what the word is and show a clear picture of it so kids can understand it better.
I do feel this book is targeted to the wrong age group. I don't see how 0-3 year old are going to like this book except for the pictures which again are bright and colorful. This seems more suited to maybe the 4-8 age group who know their ABC's but are ready for some more advanced words and descriptions.
One of the final things that I loved about this book is all the inclusivity. There are girls and boys shown in the pictures and children of every race shown. I look forward to more books from the S.T.E.A.M baby collection.
I received a review copy in exchange for an honest review.

January 18, 2021ABC ENGINEERING BOOK is an exciting adventure, one that will arouse kids’ curiosity and stretch the limits of what they are capable of learning at a very young age — even if they are to discover that “Kelvin” is not a word to describe one of their classmates, and “Yoke” is not necessarily part of an egg.
Adults will marvel in the experience as well. And if you’re like me, maybe you, too, will be proud to admit that you knew most of the definitions before even turning the first page!

Both girls and boys are represented
I really like how both girls and boys are equally represented engaging in different engineering topics. Explanations are great. I borrowed this off KU and would buy a physical copy for my little girl.
