Hi
Char,
I hope you are busy selling books
all over the continent!
The program coordinator for the
senior centre has taken the ten
books I ordered for them and is
excited about their potential. She
wants to reimburse me for them.
Could you email me a copy of the
invoice ?
I am enjoying teaching the class.
There is a university student that
was teaching with me and I know he
got a lot out of it too. This
Thursday is the last day and we are
just going to do a review of key
points and answer any questions. I
recommend the experience for anyone
wanting to get used to teaching.

Baby Step thru Computing for Seniors
Char Wood the Computer Granny
2028 Pine Tree Drive, Edgewater FL 32141
www.computergranny.com 386-424-6768
ISBN 0971961352 $19.95
When I first looked at
this book, I was reminded of what the book
series for Dummies is supposed to do;
in each volume, make it easier to understand
whatever the subject matter.
Instead I've felt stupider with each one I've studied because I couldn't grasp
anything the Dummies books say.
I'm glad to announce that simply is not the case here.
Char Wood makes it clear
that no one will feel dumb and anyone can learn how to use the computer when they follow her
hands on approach that is really the best way for anyone to learn to use a computer.
She teaches
about the keyboard, using a mouse, what each key's function is, how to scroll, how to use the
mouse, and I like that she does not talk down to her readers. She is stating her information simply
and concisely.
I think the biggest reason so many seniors have not learned about computers is
because they feel there is something to fear and that computers are so monumental. This book can
put to rest anyone's panic.

This passed winter a I
was asked if I would be
interest in teaching a
class on computers and
this was to be a
beginning class.
As
I have worked with
computer for years I
accepted how ever I had
never had any experience
in teaching.
I
was given the book "Book
one Baby Steps for
Seniors" to teach with.
I
found this book to be
very interesting and
very easy to teach from.
There were six in my
class and I am very
proud to say that
everyone of them signed
up to take your Book Two
class. I might add the I
also learn from this
book.
