Two-level table of contents in the front and detailed index in the back make it easy to find out what is covered. The instruction proceeds through many tiny lessons and examples. I bought this book and "The Developer's Reference Guide to Microsoft Small Basic. Both are useful to get up to speed with Small Basic. Learn to Program ... is much more useful given all of the help to look things up.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Great for kidsBy MichelleLike a lot of kids (and adults), my son enjoys computer games. Irsquo;ve noticed that as hersquo;s gotten more into it, like a lot of kids, his technical knowledge has skyrocketed. His reading has improved, his math skills are growing, and it seems like hersquo;s ready for some additional challenges. So, I asked him if he wanted to learn how to program his own games someday. He told me that hersquo;d noticed that a lot of programming seems quite complicated. And hersquo;s right. So I pointed out, well, you gotta start somewhere. When I was in high school, I took a lot of business classes. Eventually, that led to a programming course, where I learned Microsoft Basic. Itrsquo;s a programming language invented by Bill Gates and a friend or two, who are now, of course, the richest people in the world. At first, learning Basic wasnrsquo;t too difficult but it got pretty complicated, pretty quickly.So Microsoft has been working on that. And what theyrsquo;ve come up with is ldquo;Small Basic.rdquo; I showed my son that he could download the program for free. He played around a bit, and came back to say that it looked good, and fun, but he needed some additional help. This book offers a thorough introduction into Small Basic. Itrsquo;s laid out like a simplified text book. Itrsquo;s not exactly easy reading, but it offers simple stories that introduce the programming basics that every language uses mdash; if this happens, then do that mdash; in fun and engaging ways. Once my son learns the ldquo;basicsrdquo; of Small Basic, I think hersquo;ll be ready to learn new ways to do the same things in other programming languages.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. No previous programming experience needed!By Kindle CustomerThis book has been really fun to read and the instructions are very detailed and very easy to follow. No previous experience is needed, and I was impressed by how quickly I went from no experience to writing simple programs. My 8-year-old son was watching over my shoulder when I was writing some of the code and his first question was "when can I try it too!". I'm excited to move beyond the basic skills and try out some of the activities in the later sections of the book. Learning all that Small Basic can do is my summer project and this book is the best tool I could ever want!*I received a copy of this book from the publisher to review for myself. I was not compensated in any other way and all opinions posted here are mine and mine alone!
