About this title

Synopsis:

Written by the founders of Silicon Valley’s the CoderSchool, Basher’s Coding With Scratch is a really useful step-by-step guide to basic programming that’s packed with quirky, colourful characters – from Variable and If/Then to Loop and Function – who will teach you how to make your very own apps with Scratch 3.0. Young readers will learn all the basics of programming, then put their knowledge to the test in a series of apps, before building their first actual computer game. Plus there are lots of fun challenges to try along the way!

Combining Basher's trademark quirky and humorous illustration style with the very latest teachings on coding, Coding With Scratch is the ultimate step-by-step guide to mastering Scratch.

About the Author:

theCoderSchool, founded in 2014 and based in California's Silicon Valley, was started by two childhood friends who spotted a gap in the market when looking for a coding school for their own children. With schools in 20 US locations, growing at a projected rate of 10–15 new ones per year, and summer camps across the US, on a weekly basis they teach over 2000 kids how to code with infectious humour, enthusiasm and a sense of fun.

Simon Basher needs little introduction as the illustrator of Kingfisher's extensive range of Basher titles, which have sold over 3 million copies to date. His bestselling book is Basher Science: The Complete Periodic Table. Basher's illustration style, often described as graphic surrealism, is quirky and humorous and has proved popular with children and students as well as parents and educators.
