Python for Kids: A

Playful Introduction To
Programming
By
Jason Briggs
No Starch Press

Python is a powerful, expressive programming language that’s easy


to learn and fun to use! But books about learning to program in
Python can be kind of dull, gray, and boring, and that’s no fun for
anyone.

Python for Kids brings Python to life and brings you (and your
parents) into the world of programming. The ever-patient Jason R.
Briggs will guide you through the basics as you experiment with
unique (and often hilarious) example programs that feature ravenous
monsters, secret agents, thieving ravens, and more. New terms are
defined; code is colored, dissected, and explained; and quirky, full-
color illustrations keep things on the lighter side.

Chapters end with programming puzzles designed to stretch your


brain and strengthen your understanding. By the end of the book
you’ll have programmed two complete games: a clone of the famous
Pong and "Mr. Stick Man Races for the Exit"—a platform game
with jumps, animation, and much more.

As you strike out on your programming adventure, you’ll learn how


to:
–Use fundamental data structures like lists, tuples, and maps
–Organize and reuse your code with functions and modules
–Use control structures like loops and conditional statements
–Draw shapes and patterns with Python’s turtle module
–Create games, animations, and other graphical wonders with
tkinter

Why should serious adults have all the fun? Python for Kids is your
ticket into the amazing world of computer programming.

For kids ages 10+ (and their parents)

The code in this book runs on almost anything: Windows, Mac,


Linux, even an OLPC laptop or Raspberry Pi!
