Katrina reviewed Head First JavaScript by Michael Morrison and gave it 9 out of 10 horseshoes.

Head First JavaScript starts off by illustrating why JavaScript can be useful (adding pizzaz, interactivity, and excitement to a website), and then goes about leading the reader in experiments, exercises, and games which introduce various aspects of the language: variables, scope, objects, control statements, and events. The book also introduces debugging and very basic Ajax. ... The irreverent Head First style cleverly disguises the fact that you will walk away from the book understanding 'stuff'. ... If you are a JavaScript guru, the book will probably be an entertaining read, but not much more than that. ... Head First JavaScript is a great foundation, and will have you reading and enjoying more advanced texts in no time.
