I just ordered this book to keep on hand for beginning piano students so in addition to traditional lessons, they can learn to use their ears to play and this book gives easy chords to figure that out.

I teach music reading and improvisation along with theory and composition. This book is perfect for the beginner who is learning to improvise or 'fake' it. Only the treble clef line is given and no harmonies. You must improvise or 'fake' the left hand (and right hand harmonies) using the chord symbols listed above notes (written as C, G7, F, etc.). All songs are written in the key of C meaning there are no sharps or flats IN THE KEY SIGNATURE. Some songs in this book use as little as two chords and less than five treble notes (Mary Had a Little Lamb); yet others are quite advanced for beginners (My Favorite Things). It is a great starting fake book, filled with a variety of songs in various easy levels. As the student learns new notes and chords, they progress to more advanced pieces. Love this book!

I've been playing keyboard for a while but am still just an amateur. These Fake Books are great for beginners but will still be fun to knock around with even for those more experienced.You get a wide selection of music to dabble with, the size makes them easy to read, and the more experienced can add their own flourishes. I also adapt these for the harmonica without much trouble.

I play improv piano in a restaurant. A little boy asked me for Elmo's Song, and guess what, it's in this book, as well as a lot of other classic songs for kids. I'd recommend everyone have this book in their collections.

Very easy to use for a newbie. I ordered several of these kind of books after learning the shortcut to piano method. Grandkids love it!

I'm new to playing a guitar and wanted something simple without chords. I currently only play one note at a time on the six strings on the top four frets. This book was perfect for what I wanted.Having grown up listening to most of the songs in the book made it all that much more enjoyable.Although it is referred to as a "children's" book, songs like EDELWEIS & MY COUNTRY, TIS OF THEE & BEAUTY AND THE BEAST go beyond the listening pleasure of just the little ones.Great collection of family orientated popular songs.Beats practicing snippets of songs found in most learning books.Another nice thing about the book is that the entire song(s) can be viewed without having to turn a page. Also, the notes are large and very easy to read.I highly recommend this book.

I bought this to use in a music program for preschoolers. I love it! The songs are so easy--I can have a new song ready for each day--and the kids love them.
