Praise for Baby Code!
"This brightly colored board book introduces coding to young kids
using items and activities in their every day lives. The young girl
in the illustrations performs actions that will be familiar to
little readers, while the simple text shows how code helps
computers to do the same actions."--Vicki, BabiestoBookworms.com
Praise for the Baby Code! series
"When a child grows to understand coding, it just may be that they
have an affinity for it because they read these books as a baby!
Delightful visual and read-aloud cues introduce computer language
in this 4-book series. Sandra Horning's tight text creates clear
parallels between familiar baby activities and code-driven
objects/toys/tools found in baby's larger world. A fine, baby peek
at a complex topic, offering a shared reading experience in
graphically appealing, sturdy board books." --Janet Lawler, author
of If Kisses Were Colors and Fright School. "The Baby Code! books
celebrate toddlers' creativity and their first steps toward
understanding the technology they will command. Sandra Horning's
text is full of joyful logic! Parents and grandparents will
appreciate their inclusion in Baby's present as well as future.
Melissa Crowton's illustrations are full of "analog" teachables
too, such as shapes, numbers, animals, and nature. I love the
diverse families!"--Pegi Deitz Shea, author of The Whispering
Cloth: A Refugee's Story "Sandra is a writing whiz for the youngest
readers, choosing the perfect words to not only create a cozy
reading experience for adult and child, but to also introduce one
of the many daily encounters in a baby's ever-expanding
world."--Dana Meachen Rau, author of Robot, Go Bot!
