(3) K-3 Kids Get Coding series. Illustrated by Alex Westgate & Dan Crisp. These introductory titles for elementary-age readers focus on how we can use computers and coding in daily life. Simply designed text boxes bolster readability; blocky illustrations with polka-dot backgrounds underscore the digital subject matter and should appeal to a child audience. Quizzes and coding challenges are engaging; online activities provide additional worksheets and simple exercises. Glos., ind. Review covers these Kids Get Coding titles: Coding in the Real World, Coding to Create and Communicate, Programming Awesome Apps, and Programming Games and Animation.
