60 Problems You Can Solve in BASIC, or something close to that. It was orange. Google doesn't know about it.
My dad paid me a dollar for each one I solved. I think I did about 40 of them. Now that I think about it, that was also my first paid programming job.
Edit: Those giant Creative Computing books full of BASIC games might have actually been before that, but that 60 Problems one was the first that was explicitly about learning to code.
