Elementary JavaScript has been getting some great reviews on Amazon:
it is written in a manner that all ages can learn, understand and enjoy while learning to code
My 9 yo and I have finished first 4 chapters and absolutely love this book.
Would recommend to prospective young coders and their parents!
understanding how to think about solving a problem with code that transcends the idiosyncrasies of any individual language. The book succeeds on this front, and as such, I highly recommend it.
Even a great review from a Twitter follower:
This book is fantastic – I highly recommend it for any parent + kid team with little or no knowledge and experience of #coding.
