Reviews

[Anna C. · Rating 4 out of 5]

A really simple book for young kids about how coding works. It gives a good introduction to how coding works e.g. instructions, programs, algorithms. It’s easy to read and it only contains few sentences on each page and important words are highlighted and explained in the glossary.
What I don’t like is the awful stock photos used in the book and it makes you feel that they did not spend enough time creating this book.

A simplistic look at coding that is perfect for K-2nd grades.
