This has been written by people who understand how children’s minds work - and a lot of adults too! […] It’s all great stuff and I can’t think of a better way to get kids started on coding. I just wish I’d had this sort of opportunity when I was nine! * The Bookbag *A hot topic is introduced in this fabulously informative textbook for junior coders (and adults looking for a simple introduction!) […] Basic coding skills and clean step-by-step explanations make this a thorough workbook to help enthusiasts teach themselves an exciting new skill. * IBW Children’s Book Guide, The Bookseller *This book goes into a lot more detail than many others I have seen, so it gives excellent coverage. * Parents in Touch *Learning is through completing six ‘missions’ and discovering how to create an app or a game to your own design would be interesting and fun for kids.
