Invent with Scratch!

I've also created a free online course on Udemy that follows the first six projects from the Scratch Programming Playground. (This course covers Scratch 2, but will be updated in early-2020. The code between Scratch 2 and Scratch 3 is nearly identical, and the course can still be used to learn Scratch programming.)

Review Book Offer for Parents and Teachers

Scratch Programming Playground teaches complete beginners how to program and make games in Scratch. If you'd like to receive a free print book, please fill out the form at https://goo.gl/forms/bp4yQxhZW9qmyL3w2. Please specify you want "Scratch Programming Playground". You'll receive a free ebook to read, and upon posting a review to Amazon, you'll receive a complementary print review copy of the book. (UPDATE: There's been a large amount of interest, and I can't guarantee you'll get a print book. However, I can definitely send you an ebook to review.)

To demonstrate that you will be able to write a review, please send me a link to an Amazon, Goodreads, or Powells review you have written before.

Please post an honest review. You will receive a print book no matter what your rating is. The only requirements are that the review be a minimum of 100 words, you must live within the United States (due to shipping costs), you must have purchased $50 off Amazon in the last year (Amazon has this requirement before you can write a review), and that you email me first before writing the review.

Thanks!,
