Editorial Reviews

Review

Praise for Baby Code!
"This brightly colored board book introduces coding to young kids using items and activities in their every day lives. The young girl in the illustrations performs actions that will be familiar to little readers, while the simple text shows how code helps computers to do the same actions."--Vicki, BabiestoBookworms.com

Praise for the Baby Code! series
"When a child grows to understand coding, it just may be that they have an affinity for it because they read these books as a baby! Delightful visual and read-aloud cues introduce computer language in this 4-book series. Sandra Horning’s tight text creates clear parallels between familiar baby activities and code-driven objects/toys/tools found in baby’s larger world. A fine, baby peek at a complex topic, offering a shared reading experience in graphically appealing, sturdy board books." --Janet Lawler, author of If Kisses Were Colors and Fright School.

"The Baby Code! books celebrate toddlers’ creativity and their first steps toward understanding the technology they will command. Sandra Horning’s text is full of joyful logic! Parents and grandparents will appreciate their inclusion in Baby’s present as well as future. Melissa Crowton’s illustrations are full of “analog” teachables too, such as shapes, numbers, animals, and nature. I love the diverse families!"--Pegi Deitz Shea, author of The Whispering Cloth: A Refugee’s Story

"Sandra is a writing whiz for the youngest readers, choosing the perfect words to not only create a cozy reading experience for adult and child, but to also introduce one of the many daily encounters in a baby’s ever-expanding world."--Dana Meachen Rau, author of Robot, Go Bot!

2.0 out of 5 stars Good concept, poor execution
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2021
The idea of a book introducing coding for babies, and specifically a book encouraging girls to see coding as a normal activity, is laudable. The concept of paired pages, with baby performing some activity on one and someone (and adult, except for one page) performing an analogous activity with code, is also very nice. There also a variety of devices (laptop, tablet, phone, scanner, printer, 3D printer) which is great.

The problem is that my wife and I , when reading the book to our toddler, always have to insert our own "code" to read out; because the examples make no sense. As an example, baby draws triangles. An adult scans the drawing. The code example is "beginShape(TRIANGLES)". For a scanner?

The problem is that neither the author, the illustrator or apparently the editor have anything but the haziest idea of how computers work. So the coding examples are fanciful at best.

I'm writing this review because I was actually about to buy another in the series, Baby Code! Music. Looking at the sample pages I see it has much the same problem.

Make no mistake, presenting this subject at this age group is hard! But the execution here falls far short. It really needed to have at least minimal technical review before publication.
