If you are looking for a book to introduce the Rasbperry Pi to a youngster, this deserves serious consideration. The first two "adventures" (they aren't chapters...they are "adventures!") take the reader on a tour of the Raspberry Pi, including the differences between the B and B+ versions. Differences between the rev 1 and 2 are covered elsewhere in the text where they would make a difference in the project(s) being discussedThere are seven further exercises (sorry, "adventures") that are walked through. Two of these are basic introductions to Scratch and Python, with a third revolving around using Scratch Turtle Graphics. These are basic introductions, so when you get right down to it, there are four actual projects that are discussed in this book. In other words, if your child already has a basic knowledge of the Pi, Scratch, or Python then most of the book will be something he or she has already been introduced to.Of the remaining "adventures," one is programming in Minecraft Pi (a way to move blocks around in code instead of manually through the game), and one is using Sonic Pi to create music. The last two get into hardware and wiring, one of which is exploring the use of the GPIO pins and making the famous Marshmallow Button (which then integrates into the programming concepts introduced earlier in the book), and the final "adventure" is making a jukebox, including a GPIO interface.I think the book itself follows a logical flow and is approachable for motivated readers ten and up. Ideas build on each other that, I hope, will spark some inspiration in the reader.
