BTW I found that book online.
https://www.google.com/search?as_q=python+for+kids&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&lr=&cr=&as_qdr=all&as_sitesearch=&as_occt=any&safe=images&tbs=&as_filetype=pdf&as_rights=&gws_rd=ssl

I don't know how to post the link to the web page so I just posted the
search method I used to find it.

I wanted to review it again and I noticed something that was a little
humorous to me.  Installing Python on Ubuntu on page 9 and 10 (of the
book) shows that what ever kid is using this machine for Python is
also doing Multiplayer online poker.

Trying to parlay his/her lunch money would be my guess.
