12 Games of Christmas offers a compelling take on Programming, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Interactive Games is excellent, I found the sections on Programming less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Educational Games that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Holiday Projects more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Coding for Beginners will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Holiday Projects, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved 12 Games of Christmas! It completely changed my perspective on Programming. At first I wasn't sure about Programming, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Creative Programming is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in Holiday Projects. What I appreciated most was how the book made Beginner Coding feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
