How to Code a Rollercoaster

Description

Pearl and her trusty robot, Pascal, are in for a treat: a day at the amusement park! They’re excited to play games, eat ice cream, and, of course, ride all the rollercoasters. There’s just one problem: the Python Coaster, the biggest and best ride in the park, also has the longest line. Can Pearl and Pascal use CODE to help them get a seat on the giant coaster? By mastering the use of variables, sequences, loops, conditionals, and more, this duo just might get the ride of their dreams—while having the time of their lives. With renowned computer science nonprofit Girls Who Code, Josh Funk and Sara Palacios use giggle-worthy humor and bright artwork to introduce kids to the fun of coding.
