ABCs of Programming, a children’s picture book

As a programmer I wanted a way to explain to my toddler what I do at work. Currently I tell him I give hugs to robots and write email. So my wife and I wrote a picture book about programming concepts called "The ABCs of Programming" https://www.amazon.com/dp/1548489778
