Lyons, Heather and Elizabeth Tweedale Online Safety
for Coders (Kids Get Coding Series), Illustrated by Westgate, Alex. 24pgs,
Lerner 2016. $19.99. Content: G
This book gives provides information about online safety that
would be applicable to any student internet user. It goes over what information
to keep private, digital identities, passwords, and sharing online. There are
activities and fun facts. The illustrations are bright, blocky, and basic.
The big problem I have with this book is that students would
pick it up who wanted to learn coding and there really isn’t anything about
coding inside. It just wasn’t that specific to coders, not at all in fact. I
wouldn’t buy this book for just that reason. If this book was marketing and
titled to be online safety tips, that would be much better, especially since
the information and the presentation is great.
