The book is for anyone who wants to learn how to modify Minecraft--no previous programming experience required! The book uses JavaScript, a popular programming language for creating websites and scripting. Aimed at kids who already play Minecraft, this guide will teach coding through a series of "Recipes" (the term used in-game when crafting new objects). For example, in the game, one of the first things any player must do is create a Workbench, or Crafting Table, which will in turn enable the player to create sophisticated tools. Recipe 1 in the book (the term Recipe and Chapter is interchangeable) is 'A modding Workbench' and its ingredients are the tools the reader will need to begin modding. The goal of each Recipe/chapter is to introduce a new JavaScript concept or expand upon a previously introduced concept. The author will present each recipe as a useful addition to the game while gently introducing programming concepts in an approachable style. This unique approach gets over the problem of introducing JavaScript in an interesting way and avoids spending 3 or 4 chapters explaining JavaScript core concepts in a vacuum. Several Recipes will be covered, including Rolling Dice, Snowball Fight, Piggie Pandemonium, Advanced Modding, and more.

Do you have a student (or a few) who hates to write but loves to build online? Why not use his love of the game to inspire a desire to write? Using the different writing styles such as compare and contrast, persuasive, descriptive, process, and narrative, students will create a Minecraft guidebook lapbook. They will build the book using their knowledge of the game and create fold-outs, pop-ups, a cave tunnel book, and a chest filled with information about blocks and tools. The book is designed for students of all ages, girls and boys! You decide what is acceptable for their age/grade/ writing ability. Each writing style includes prompts, a graphic organizer, and a fun lapbook piece to be filled in by your student(s). There is even a section for a book report if you wish to use one. In the end, your students will have something they can be proud of and something they will want to share with others: a book written by them about a game they love!
