Aww! I missed this topic completely because I was on vacation!
Anyways, this looks like a great book! I might get it, but I'm not sure I really want to.
Congratulations on getting it published! Maybe it's going to be in the library, if it is, i'll be taking it ou!

Are there any plans to distribute this book to europe?

You didn't say what part of Europe - but you can get it at Amazon.co.uk
I got it from a third party seller on Amazon and it was much cheaper than Amazon itself , and the delivery was quicker !!!

Just got this book. I would have to agree with Jens' on his review. It is very extensive, though! Can't wait to read through it (it has over 300 pages, FYI).

Hi, I wanted to let you know that we have reviewed this book, and gave it the highest rating of all the books that we review on the subject of teaching children programming.
http://www.kidslike.info/recommended_books_teaching_kids_programming
(We review 17 books on this page)
and the review of this book is the 9th most popular page on our site!
(Our site currently focuses on how to teach children programming)
excerpt from our review
"This book is particularly suitable for children. In fact, of all the programming books on this site, this is the best one for young children (age 10 or less).
A child of nine can follow the code examples in this book to make her own program. Many of the concepts (such as if - else code) can be learned by children as young as six or seven. There are pictures on just about every page. It is clearly written and very easy to follow."
The review of "Scratch Programming for Teens" we wrote is on this page.

Just got the book in the mail yesterday from Tower.com, and I'm loving it!
I also wanted to let you know that Figure 2.15 and 2.18 (pp. 42 & 45) are the same. Figure 2.15 should show a sprite with two costume instead. In case you ever reprint!

English:
Hello, though I know it would probably be available at Amazon, or bookstores near you, it may not be available in Spanish. Sorry.
Dansk:
Hej, selvom jeg ved, at det sandsynligvis ville være tilgængelig på Amazon, eller boghandlere i nærheden af dig, kan det ikke være tilgængelig på spansk. Ked af.
Español:
Oye, aunque sé que probablemente estará disponible en Amazon, librerías y cerca de usted, puede no estar disponible en español. Perdón.
