[Edu-sig] python for kids...

[Jason R Briggs]

Hi All

I'm hoping to get some feedback (flameback?) for a book I've been 
working on (on and off for the last year or so), endeavouring to teach 
Python to kids (8-12).  It's not perfect (by any stretch of the 
imagination), since it hasn't had a professional edit -- nor have I 
given it the requisite 6 month or so cooling down period to go back and 
hack out large chunks of dross with a bit of 
"what-the-hell-was-I-thinking" objectivity.  But I'm hoping some may 
find it useful, and over time I might get enough feedback to tidy it up 
a bit.

Anyway, the download link can be found on this page:

And a bit of background reading as to why I even bothered can be found 
here, if at all interested:

Any commentary would be useful, and attribution will, of course, be given.
