This has lots of classic folk tunes plus M.R.Taylor's own marvelous Halloween songs. The ukelele adaptations are easy and sound great. He has the chords pictured nicely at the top of the pages so it's easy to figure out how to play them for those of us who are still learning. It includes songs like "The Cat Came Back", "The Crocodile," and "The Ghost of John," and my favorite Taylor originals -- "Three Little Ghostesses" and "Old Witch, Old Witch" and "I'm a Mean Old Witch." Almost 60 songs in all! Tons of fun, just in time for Halloween.

This is a unique and delightfully spooky collection of songs for a hauntingly great time with your uke. I doubt most of us could find more than a few of these songs on our own. It's far more complete than most other uke song books. You'll find not only lyrics and chords, but strumming patterns and tab for some songs. The Author provides very clear and easy to follow tutorials for most of the songs on his website and is quickly working to complete tutorials for the remainder. There's something for everyone in this book. Songs range from very simple to somewhat challenging. It's available in both hard, and e-print versions. If you like spooky songs, you have to have this.

All in all a great book! Some songs are easy and some are more difficult, but chords, strumming patterns and finger picking patterns are clear. Words and chord shapes are easy to read. The book is creative and fun and gives the reader/musician the opportunity to either play Ryan's arrangements or create their own.

Clever, interesting arrangements of some familiar things and some new music. In addition to the music, Taylor has included what amounts to a good short course in ukulele. We bought this for grandkids who are musical and are learning to play - it's perfect, and they are going to love it!

This is a fabulously spooky song book, sure to delight. There are some very good arrangements and original sings with musical notation, chords, tab and helpful strumming patterns. Plenty of meat for more advanced ukulele players but some pieces simple enough for beginners.

Nice selection of songs. This book seems to be best for intermediate to advanced players. It has a few easy strum patterns and 2 or 3 chord songs and mostly songs in keys that are easy to play the chords in. Some more advanced rags or jazz tunes require frequent chord changes and the ability to read notes. Tablature is rare. Traditional songs , familiar children's songs, and a few parodies are interspersed with new tunes. Great for use with children as well as adults.review by Amy

This is great ....I am currently a beginner on the little Uke (hopefully will be a master one day!)I found this so much fun... difficult at times but that's because I'm a beginner.I would recommend buying this book, there is lots of fun to be had playing these songs and even reading them : )Good choice of words and drawing too. Well done for creating this Ryan Taylor.
