This is a guide to programming with the Haskell programming language that I'm writing for my nine year old son. I'm putting it in a public Git repo in case it's useful to others. The target audience is people who have never programmed before, and don't have a real understanding of how computers work in general. Other audiences may find it helpful as well. I'm aiming to keep the writing level at something comfortable for a third grader.

I call it the "magical guide" because, at various points, I will be referring to some things as "magic." There is no such thing as magic, at least in computers. Magic here means "we're not going to fully understand this yet, treat it as magic." The goal is to not get bogged down in overly confusing topics prematurely.
