After months of convincing myself that “nobody needs another programming book for kids in 2026”, I finally finished mine. I wanted to do this for years but last year I finally had the courage to start working on it. This version is free and I’d love to get some feedback: ko-fi.com/s/3ea7329e63 💙📚

Cover image of a book: it has a blue robot pointing at the title, a puzzle, a teddy bear and a beach ball. The title says: “JavaScript with toys. Programming for kids (and curious grown-ups)”.

I just love StoryGraph’s stats! I think my readings were quite diverse, but this year I want to pick more books from the Global South. 💙📚

A bar chart with the most read genres in 2025, which were: contemporary, literary, LGBTQIA+, science fiction and memoir.

I’m working on a short illustrated children’s book that introduces JavaScript concepts using simple language and playful toys. The base version will be free, and there’s a colorful extended edition with bonus coding bits you can buy if you’d like. Here’s a little sneak peek!👇 #BookSky #JavaScript

Couldn’t decide between colour and black&white, so I went with both. #AbstractAug #Buildings

Upside-down photo showing the reflection of a tall modern building and trees in a pond. The reflection is in colour, while the actual scene below is in black and white, creating a split visual effect.

#BlueSkyArtShow #Gratitude Grateful for the chance to travel and stumble upon places like this.

A narrow cobblestone alley lined with potted plants and small outdoor tables, leading to a white building in the background. Sunlight casts soft shadows across the scene.

How to Stay Sane in an Age of Division by Elif Shafak ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I really loved this book! Despite its short length, it powerfully captures the complexities and fractures of today’s society. #booksky

Quote by Elif Shafak from the book How to Stay Sane in an Age of Division: “If the feeling of not being heard persists and becomes routine, it will gradually close off our ears and our hearts.”

This week #SensoryArt: #Opposites. A contrast between the solid, unmoving rocks and the dynamic, constantly moving sea. #Iceland #Photography

A coastal scene with two tall rock formations standing still as waves crash against them. The rocks and the sand are both black, in contrast with the white foam of the sea.

The #BlueSkyArtShow theme is #Spring but nature where I live still feels lifeless. So, here’s a LEGO van Gogh with a tiny floret, wishing you all a happy spring! #Photography
