Editorial Review

A noteworthy review of Simple Coding from Children's Bookwatch on August 1, 2020

Cover: All about Coding Functions

As children grow up surrounded by technology, more and more are learning computer coding at younger and younger ages. With the ‘Simple Coding’ series for children ages 7-10, computer coding has never been simpler. Each 24 page book in this seven volume series introduces young coders in grades 2-5 to a different coding concept, explaining what it is and how it works. This fun and informative series consists of All About Coding Statements; All About Coding Variables; All About Coding Functions; All About Coding Selections; All About Debugging Code; All About Coding Loops; All About Coding Sequences. Illustrative diagrams and real-world examples will connect readers to these concepts and provide a foundation for continued learning. Additional features include a table of contents, a phonetic glossary, a Did You Know section, an index, an introduction to the author, and sources for further research. Although each individual titles is available separately, elementary schools, community libraries, and home schooling parents should acquire the entire eight volume set (978-15038-3991, $159.60, Hard Cover) as it covers every aspect of computer coding specifically tailored to young readers.
