The Little Learner is a great book. I tried rewriting all the code in Python/JAX while following the Scheme code style as closely as possible, and it worked out great.
The appendix on autodiff is a bit rushed, in my opinion. But in all fairness, the number of pages would probably need to be doubled to give a proper exposition of autodiff.
