My 12 year old brother has recently expressed an interest in learning to program. I of course think this is a great idea, why not start him early? I’m wondering what you guys think with regards a book? I was thinking I should start him off on Java but I’m unsure what book would be best? Any suggestions with regards a book or even another language would be much appreciated.
UPDATE: I’ve went with Python and I’m starting him off with “Snake wrangling for kids”.
I found Python to be really easy to learn at first.
This is a great, fun book for it. Just make sure he
has fun!
