APPEALS TO: SEVERAL 

Adults don't know everything, and sometimes their kids need to fill them in. This girl is doing just that, teaching her adult about coding. It's how computers are programmed! 

Ruth Spiro (of the Baby Loves Science series) has moved on from board books to this picture book featuring an older child (maybe 9 or 10?). I love how the girl takes it slow and simple and even lets her adult demonstrate understanding. Includes a glossary, and is part of the "explain science to a grown-up series"
