"Blue Pelican Java" is a somewhat unusual high school computer
science textbook. Most computer science texts will begin with a
section on the history of computers followed with a flurry of
definitions that are just "so many words" to the average student.
The approach here is to first give the student some experience upon
which to hang the definitions that come later. The usual practice
of introducing classes and objects is deferred until the student
has a firm grasp of the fundamentals (loops, decision structures,
etc). Thus, the beginning student is not overwhelmed by the
simultaneous introduction of OOPs and the fundamentals. The book
includes plenty of exercises (many in "contest" form), programming
projects, and a huge appendix.
