Nursery Rhyme/Famous Melodies Book

Price: £10.50

Fun for the whole family. This book contains 23 simple, well-known melodies everybody loves.

The beautiful, coloured illustrations on their own will make this your child’s favourite book. Based on the Dogs and Birds approach to learning piano, this book enables all children, even those who do not yet know the alphabet, to play these simple arrangements with ease. With the help of a parent or a teacher even a three year old can start to use this book.

The book comes in two editions.

In the animal notes edition animal symbols are printed inside each note to signify the name of the note. This is recommended for ages three to six.

The contents of the blank notes edition are the same as that of the animal notes edition, but without the animal symbols. This is recommended for ages six to seven.

The two editions also be used in parallel, depending on the child's ability and interest. They can be purchased as a set at a reduced price.

Our son (6 years old) started on this book a month ago and is enjoying it a lot: the fact that he knows most of the songs helps and even the new ones he cannot wait to learn. The illustrations are fantastic and help keep him engaged (especially as they are coloured!)I can fully recommend this book for young starters.

A wonderful pair of books which have aided very quick learning for my two children (6 and 4 years). The 6 year old has quickly memorised two tunes now (Sur le Pont and Mary had a little lamb)both within a single week. The illustrations in the books are engaging and the kids love using them making it very easy indeed for them to learn quickly. I intend to keep going ang use these as the basis for the kids to build up their own little repetoire memorised by heart. A must buy for new learners.

This is fast becoming a favourite with both my children (6 and 5 years). The fact that the tunes are all recognisable to them, along with the sympathetic arrangments and brightly coloured designs, means they are very much encouraged to try new tunes and enjoy playing some old favourites. And there is enough variety to challenge them without putting them off. A great book all round!
