[Faith Tydings · Rating 3 out of 5]

After a brief history in the beginning, it jumps right into HTML coding and how to learn it with no prior knowledge. It is illustrated with cute characters that follow kids through their coding adventures and interject with fun facts throughout. It is an easy resource to use and it is very comprehensive in its approach to help kids learn something that can be quite complex. After teaching the basics, it challenges young coders to try new things like, “take a path,” or “make a game.” I would highly recommend this book for an older audience (tweens most likely) and I can definitely see making a library program from this book.
