[WEB4LIB] Books for kids on creating webpages

[Ru Story-Huffman]

Bill,
I have found the following book to be helpful with kids (and "net-new" adults as
well!)

Pedersen Ted.  MAKE YOUR OWN WEB PAGE! A GUIDE FOR KIDS.  Price Stern Sloan,
1998.  ISBN: 0-8431-7459-5

The book provides a nice intro to the web and walks students through 3 stages of
web page design:  Imagining the site, planning the site and building the site.
Included in the "building" section is HTML, format, tables, adding graphics,
and  linking to other pages.  Hope this helps!
