Alec Carvlin 
How to Bake a Universe [EPUB ebook] 

This whimsical and informed debut picture book takes a leaf from a cookbook to show readers how the universe came into being.

To bake a universe, you’ll need a heaping pile of nothing. That’s right, not a single thing!



Just make sure you have enough . . . Alec Carvlin breaks down the Big Bang into the steps of a recipe, from the formation of quarks and atoms (
preheat your oven to Absolute Hot) to the compression of gases into stars and planets (
just set your timer for 180 million years). Carvlin expertly balances mind-boggling facts with snappy storytelling, and Brian Biggs’s bold and contagiously cheerful illustrations bring the infinite down to the bite-sized.
How to Bake a Universe is an accessible and playful authority on the formation of the universe and a heartfelt commentary on how to live in it.
