I am a high school piano class teacher as well as a private piano teacher to many children- even my high schoolers have a lot of trouble with this book! There are too many awkward finger changes all over the place. I thought the left hand part would be mostly chords (I, IV, V, and V7)- not true at ALL!!! Hardly any chords at all in this book. I ended up writing out all my own Christmas songs for my high school class.

I have really enjoyed learning along with my son and daughter with these books. I love the way they are easily arranged, the artwork and the choice of songs. I would highly recommend the series.

Truly great instructions, numbering the finger required for both hands, making it easy to learn proper positioning to build skills. It is presented in simple but effective details, and allows learning as well as producing satisfaction with real songs. Recommended for adults learning to play piano for personal pleasure.

Anyone can truly teach themselves how to play the piano with this children’s collection of familiar Christmas songs. My husband bought me a keyboard as a graduation gift when I got my Master’s degree. He said it was to fill all my free time now that I won’t be studying, reading, or writing. Well, this Christmas I played three songs for my family on Christmas Eve. It was so heart-warming. It was a memorable experience for my husband and son as well. This book presents songs that are playable by the novice adult piano player. Thanks for giving us a new Christmas tradition.
