Released just three years ago, The Big Fat Notebooks revolutionised
the study guide for upper-middle-grade readers, and students,
parents, and teachers responded - the series has nearly 4 million
copies in print with sales escalating every year. Now introducing
Everything You Need to Ace Computer Science and Coding, an
essential new title with the potential to run hand-in-hand with -
or even outrun - Math (over 1.3 million copies in print) and
Science (925,000 copies in print) as the next critical STEM
companion. Instruction is presented in the simple but powerful
format of the previous Big Fat Notebooks. The key concepts of
coding and computer science easily digested and summarised, with
critical ideas clearly explained, doodles that illuminate tricky
concepts, and quizzes to recap it all. Kids will explore the
concepts of computer science, learn how websites are designed and
created, and understand the fundamentals of coding with Scratch,
Python, HTML, and CSS. Written by Grant Smith, a computer science
education expert - and vetted by an award-winning computer-science
teacher - this Big Fat Notebook is for every student who is either
taking computer science in school or is a passionate code warrior
