کتاب پایتون برای بچه‌ها (Python for Kids)، برای هر کسی که علاقه مند به برنامه نویسی باشد مفید است، می‌خواهد بچه ای باشد یا فرد بالغی باشد که برای اولین بار سراغ برنامه نویسی می‌آیند. اگر می‌خواهید که نحوه‌ی این که چگونه خودتان برنامه بنویسید به جای این که از برنامه‌های توسعه داده شده توسط دیگران استفاده کنید، کتاب Python for Kids، محلی عالی برای شروع است.

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.
