I bought this and was disappointed. The book has misspelled words and words that are repeated. Plus, it's pretty boring. Not a sturdy board book and the flaps are flimsy. Not worth it.
I loved the idea of a web design book targeting babies age 2-5. I thought it was innovative so I ordered this book. When it arrived and I read it, I found that the language used is NOT for babies for example HTML is defined as the structure of a web page. Couldn't they define it in more simple words and maybe some analogies that a baby might understand?But hey, you can use it for nursery decoration or a photoshoot.. If you are planning to teach your baby anything, forget it with this book!
I didn't expect this book to actually teach coding to babies, but I guess the final product doesn't offer too much more than the basic joke in the title. I thought there could be a really basic story arc, at least, separate from the web design concepts. But there's no story, just three cute characters who present themselves, but don't make any big accomplishment. The layout, as well, is really cluttered. Maybe they were limited by trying to fit all their ideas onto 12 pages, but there isn't really one clear thing to focus on for any given page.
I'm really disappointed in this book. This book isn't written for babies by any stretch of the imagination. The presentation of it in a board book is about as baby as it gets.I was hoping for a fun little book to share with my 1.5 year old (she loves lift the flap books), but other than looking at the colors, there's not much for a child her age. The content is written at maybe an 8-10 year old level, talking about specific css functions and html tags. I expected more like "this is a tag, it has brackets!" "these are colors!" etc.
It's not even for toddlers or even beginner coders. I should know, I am one. This is much too sophisticated for a child. If you don't have a, slightly beyond basic, working knowledge of coding you won't even be able to explain this to your child. However, if you do have knowledge of coding, you will be able to explain it. And if your toddler understands it, congratulations, that child is a genius!
There are typos in this book, but more importantly, HTML and Javascript are guys and CSS is a girl?CSS: "I am the STYLE of a web page... After I am done styling and the page looks great I hand it off..."Could this be any more sexist?Nice try, but try again.
This book is cute, not actually so appropriate for a young child but it gave the dad to be a good laugh.
Awesome book, love reading it with my daughter. Its also an awesome gift, I've bought several for that purpose BUT there is a huge glaring typo.
