This is not a new topic at all. In fact, it’s all the rage right now. I’m just a smidge behind on the times. BUT I absolutely LOVE this book for teaching kids what coding is. I’m reading it aloud to all my students, kindergarten through fifth grade. It teaches vocab and introduces the concept of coding in such an easy to understand way. I highly recommend it.
