Designed as an introduction for absolute beginners, this book is ideal for young children to use with a teacher or parent. Older children will find this book and CD the perfect accompaniment to practising alone since all the tunes in the book are featured on the CD. The tunes are graded to allow beginners to advance at a steady pace; each new concept is accompanied by a practice tune which players can listen to, and learn from, on the CD.
Since I consider my self tone-deaf any book that can actually remedy this to some effect is a welcome addition to my book shelves. The truth is I bought this book not for my self but for my seven year old daughter who had earlier during the year started attending piano lessons. The book is very cleverly illustrated both so as to capture and maintain the attention of a child as well as to make learning how to play the piano as easy as possible. I consider my daughter the best critic of how useful this book remains for her even though my daughter's piano teacher was also quite impressed by its contents. If you have a child who has just started learning how to play the piano or if the child within you wants to have another go at learning how to read music and also play such a magnificent instrument then this book is highly recommended both for its simplicity and effectiveness.
