This book is designed to teach Visual Basic programming to preteen kids with a hands-on approach and a step by step teaching style. This book is preteen tested, and their feedback was used in the writing. Whether you are 8 or 88 years old, this book is an easy and fast way to learn how to program a computer using one of the most prominent programming languages of our time. The Color images in this book are key to making it simple and easy to follow (and why the book is expensive). Although this book is written using Visual Studio 2010, this book can be used, and the programs will work, in any version of Visual Studio.
