Reviews
Great book. I'm 50 and teaching myself to play. This book goes step by step and gives great practice pieces. They may seem so simple, but there is a point behind practicing scales and such. I'm amazed when I can actually play one of their song pieces, and it sounds so pretty. It really is a great teaching book. I ordered this over a year ago, and just getting around to using it. Not sure if it came with the dvd or not. I think it did, but I can't find it. But it is still teaching me well with just the book alone.
