Can anyone recommend a good introductory programming book for a boy
in junior high? Any decent programming language would be good.

I think the Python version of "How To Think Like a Computer Scientist" is pretty good. It's published with an open content license and can be viewed at http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/thinkCSpy/
