“Kumon’s STEM Navi: Programming Series,” Volume 2

With that said, the second volume of the picture book series under my supervision—which teaches the basics of computers—is now on sale. Zero and One serve as the guides for this volume, where we explore “programming languages”—the tools that translate human ideas into computer instructions.

I served as the supervisor, and inspired by the editor’s passionate desire to “create a book even better than the original,” I found the online collaboration with the editor and translator to be a truly enjoyable experience.

If you're interested, please check them out. The remaining seven books I posted about earlier will be released in the new year!
