Reviews

Grade 5 Up - A clear, concise how-to book. Starting with the basics of creating a folder and an HTML page, readers will produce a Web page in a very short period of time. The step-by-step instructions are easy to follow, and the illustrations provide practice exercises. Sample pages show what the finished products should look like. Each chapter has a brief summary and challenge questions. Solutions appear on the author's Web site. This is a much-needed resource for students who are comfortable with a computer and want to do more than cut and paste. - Kathleen A. Nester, Downingtown High Ninth Grade Center, PA
