Manning authors know their stuff because they’re plugged into their communities–blogging, speaking, and, of course, coding. Our job is to take all the experience earned by our busy authors and turn it into books that will save you time. Here’s a glimpse at the recent activities of three Manning authors, along with an opportunity to add some great books to your collection at a great discount.

Way to go, Carter Sande!

Carter Sande, coauthor of Hello World! Computer programming for kids and other beginners, just took second place in the Alameda County Apps Challenge “hackathon” for his app “isthisbizgreen.” (That’s Carter’s fresh face in the picture.) He also managed to score a student scholarship to Apple’s WWDC. Last, but not least, Hello World! was recently voted a winner in the 2014 Practical Homeschooling Reader Awards.
