How to Code a Rollercoaster

Funk, J.
When Pearl and her robot, Pascal, visit an amusement park they use coding language to describe their adventures, and keep track of the tokens they need for the attractions and rides. This picture book uses simple language, humour, appealing illustrations, and relatable situations to help students understand coding and how it works, and to identify text features and comprehension strategies. Suitable for whole-class instruction to introduce coding, small group or individual reading, and a classroom library addition.
