Hi r/scheme, my little brother (11) is interested in programming. Since he doesn't know what he wants to make yet, I feel like scheme could be a good first language to learn the basics, paired with "The Little Schemer", a book I worked through when I was younger that I feel like he'd like and would teach him some solid CS foundations. Any input on this?

Just here to second HtDP, and point to the How to Code course(s), with their emphasis on learning Systematic Program Design from the start, using Racket's BSL (ie introductory Scheme)
