learn Silverlight 3 while building a complete game application.

easily add life to web applications with dynamic user features, colorful transitions,
and eye-catching animations.
We think it should be just as much fun to learn Silverlight as it is to use it. And
we know that fun learning gets better results. Hello! Silverlight 3 is a fast-paced,
entertaining introduction to Silverlight. In this book, User Friendly cartoon characters
offer commentary and snide side comments, as the book moves quickly
from Hello World into practical techniques. Each one is illustrated with a handson
example. Along the way, readers will learn to build a simple Silverlight-based
game complete with sound effects.
