Coding for Kids: Python: Learn to Code with 50 Awesome Games and Activities by Adrienne B. Tacke is a helpful beginner’s coding book for children. One thing that I love about the book is that it shows a lot of handy images that will help guide users as they begin their Python journey. I really enjoyed each chapter’s practice activities, which are spelled out in an easy-to-follow manner. My favorite chapter discussed the concept of reusability, or how easy it is to use something again and again.

It is often hard to find a computer programming book for total beginners. I liked reading Automate the Boring Stuff with Python: Practical Programming for Total Beginners by Al Sweigart, but never thought about another alternate for starting Python learning: reading a Python book geared for children such as Coding for Kids. Because Coding for Kids is obviously written for children, it is a fun and easy way to jump into Python programming when you know very little about programming to begin with.
