If you do, you've probably played \u003cem\u003eMinecraft.\u003c\/em\u003e When \u003cem\u003eMinecraft\u003c\/em\u003e creator Markus Persson was young, he wasn't very interested in the games themselves. He was more interested in the programing instructions in the computer's manual. By the time Persson was eight years old, he was writing code for his own computer games. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When he was eighteen, Persson landed his dream job as a video game programmer. In 2009, he designed \u003cem\u003eMinecraft\u003c\/em\u003e in a single weekend. In the game, players use blocks to build whatever they choose. Persson wanted to let players use their imaginations, and the idea paid off. Today, \u003cem\u003eMinecraft\u003c\/em\u003e is one of the most popular computer games in the world. Although Persson doubts he will ever top this success, he continues to develop games, while fans wait for what's next.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kari Cornell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467795267\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467795265\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lerner Publications (Tm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 7.00w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e180565 \/ Minecraft Creator: Markus \"Notch\" Persson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2016 pg. 205 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw","brand":"Kari Cornell","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":43936125780223,"sku":"9781467795265","price":26.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b4a507f4-6579-49ab-93c7-944e6aaa0b2e.jpg?v=1681423736","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/minecraft-creator-markus-notch-persson-kari-cornell-9781467795265","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
