Cute story!

What a fun way to share coding in a sweet and simple way for children to understand. My kids are already doing this at school and these sweet penguins teach the reader about the use of coding in a manner of teamwork and what happens when you need to rewrite a code to carry victory. Adorable penguin team and cute learning tool.

We really enjoy reading this story. I like the different themes presented here; bonding between father and son, working together, friendship and trying your best to succeed. When Pete starts to code and see how the train will run, I like the simplicity and you can picture all the steps. It's a beautiful way to introduce kids to coding and a great way to play with the penguins.

A cute, easy to understand book

This is a fun, simple story about the very basic logic that goes into programming codes (or I assume it is since I don't know how to code!) But after reading this book, if penguins can code, I sure bet kids can - and maybe even I can. Cute illustrations engage the reader/listener and the layout of the story is simple and easy to follow.

Fun and helpful too

This is a great book that points out the simple mistakes made by children learning to code. Great resource for home and the classroom. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
