Brilliant book
I never leave comments about books but I just thought I had to say something! Things book is very detailed but it's done in such a way that you don't have to focus too hard for to long to understand a concept. The combination of cartoon and factual data makes it a fun read! I really enjoyed this book! Thank you!

distracting story - some good info if you wade through a story untill the information gets interesting
kind of useless as a learning tool - maybe an introductory tool if you don't loose interest

Cute but not very effective
Novel approach to learning a new skill that doesn't quite work well. The graphics are very well done but I don't like learning to program from comic books.

Great for kids!
My son is 10, and had Asperger's. He is really interested in coding. I bought him a domain on GoDaddy and gave him this book, along with 1 other HTML coding book. He was able to take this book and build his own website all by himself! Highly recommend!

Masters the art of the start!
As a developer, some small part of every day is advising friends on how to get started in web development. If nothing else, I've began recommending this book because it helps new developers overcome the anxiety that scares otherwise, smart people away from the craft. well done!
