Hi Robert,

Try this book:
*Hello World!*
*Computer Programming for Kids and Other Beginners*
*Warren D. Sande and Carter Sande*

You will get downloads for the *Hello World!* installers and sample code.

My son, some of you have met, is showing an interest in Python
programming.  He has never done any sort of programming in the past,
however I told him that we would learn Python together.  I have very little
programming experience myself, but I have worked in Python in the past.
 Mostly either reworking something already written or very small targeted
scripts for a certain task.

What would be a good book , or website, that we can sit down at the
kitchen table to learn Python side by side?

I thinking something which creates short bursts of code that has a usable
product in the end might be better, this way he doesn't get bored and
decide to quit before he realizes the power of Python.

Thanks everyone!

Robert
