First of all, I love these books: they’re sweet! We start all of our beginners on them. In fact, I use them with our beginner brass players as well. It’s great to get the kids playing actual songs and recognizable melodies before learning all the theoretical jargon of music notation. So thank you very much; we will continue to use them. So, with that all said, we have a number of piano students who are becoming very comfortable using your books and are ready to move on to the “next step.” Is there a specific book or system you would recommend? Thank you for all the music you’ve placed into our kids’ fingertips!
 
5 star – Wonderful Book!  (Amazon)
By M.B.K. “a reader” (VA, United States)”
I hadn’t touched a keyboard in 20+ years prior to picking up this book. But it is so simple & easy that I was quickly able to play the simple, child friendly tunes: Ring Around the Rosie, Hot Cross Buns, Mary Had a Little Lamb etc…contain within. Not only is the teaching system very, very “friendly” & easy, the book is also a pleasure to read & look through, thanks to the lovely illustrations. I highly recommend this book, for beginner adults and children!
 
5 star – Great “Teacher” (Amazon)
By M. Kirker “Carioca” (Katy, TX United States)
I bought this book along with a piano for my daughter’s 8th birthday. She has never taken piano lessons, it has been less than 3 months and she already knows how to play all the songs in the book. She loves this book. I wish there was a book 2 like this one.
 
5 star – fun and easy!  (Amazon)
By C.J.J.
I am a piano teacher and my 7 year old son and I love this book! He can easily understand what to do and can play each song by himself with little or no help from me. He enjoys playing these songs because they are easily recognizable and short enough to feel successful. I can’t wait for the next book!  

5 star – A fantastic beginning book for young child  (Amazon)
By Y. Pian “the Farmer” (New York, USA)
I purchased a bunch of beginner books for my 4-year old, who had no piano experience at all. After I got the books, I reviewed them first, and found this one the perfect one for young child, because it uses the letters and finger chart instead of the intimidating music notes to illustrate the popular children’s songs. So, I presented only this one to my daughter. Amazingly, she was able to follow the book all by herself, which made her very proud of herself!!! She loves to play piano now, and loves to give piano lessons to us too!!!

“My friend and I have hours of fun with this book. We love it!”

Dr. Jewel A. Smith – pianist & teacher, Ohio
“Everyone is very impressed with the book. Teachers are asking where they can buy it. One teacher tried it with a child who is a bit restless and it worked exceptionally well…”

M. Snyder – flutist, Virginia
“I have always encouraged my daughter to play piano, but she was frustrated. When she tried this book she was greatly encouraged because she could play right from the start. She wants to know when the next one is coming!”

“I found it to be the best book to give beginners. They just keep playing. Easy and fun!”
C. Hoffmann – piano teacher, Hawaii

“My granddaughter Kaitlyn, who is 6 years old, played the book from cover to cover, over and over again. And she listens to the CD constantly. It’s her favorite.”
