[TriLUG] book for kids on open source philosophy?

[Jack Hill]

For your own education (and perhaps for the child as it grows older) I 
recommend _Free Software Free Society_ 
<http://shop.fsf.org/product/free-software-free-society-2/>. It's a 
collection of short essays by rms about software freedom.

10 years old is old enough to start learning to program. Perhaps set the 
child up with a GNU/Linux environment, and then find simple, real-world, 
programs to study (perhaps KDE plasmoids or emacs modes).

Good luck.

Perhaps we need to have a TriLUG family day.
