Very easy to teach out of this series.

I bought this for my 10 year old who has just started to learn the piano at the recommendation of his teacher. The songs are very easy for him to play. He is really enjoying learning to play some music that he recognizes. His favorite song is Good King Wenceslas. The arrangements are quite nice. It does seem that the further you get into the book, the tougher they get. List of songs in the book are:1. Good King Wenceslas2. Jingle Bells3. Jolly Old Saint Nicholas4. Up on the Housetop5. Away in a Manger6. Go, Tell it on the Mountain7. We Three Kings of Orient Are8. O Come, Little Children9. O Come, All Ye Faithful10. Dance of the Reed Flutes11. O Come, O Come Emmanuel

My daughter loves playing out of this book

My son enjoys learning new songs from this book. He has been playing piano for a few months and is able to learn those easily. Some are well-known songs, and he is proud that he can play them. They have accompaniment option to be played by more advanced players.

I am a piano teacher and this year I believe I ended up buying at least 5 of these, over the course of 3 months. Several of my brand new piano students were able to use this book. The song selection is really good, and the arrangements are simple.
