I purchased two Squeak books a couple of years ago and then got side tracked.
The titles of the books are:
SQUEAK, Learn Programming with Robots. AND SQUEAK, A QUICK TRIP TO OBJECTLAND. This last book contains Squeak Version 3.0 on a CD ROM.
Does anyone know if the above books are valid with the current version of Squeak?
Your time and efforts are appreciated. Dick Silva.

I don't know how current it is, but I didn't like "A Quick Trip To ObjectLand" much. "Squeak by Example" is a much better book. You can purchase a printed copy from lulu.com or read it for free on line. It was well worth the cost of a printed copy for me!

Learn programming with Robots is best used with the image that matches the book.

It really depends on a special bot environment.
The skills you learn are applicable to Squeak.
Haven't read the Squeak version of Objectland.
