A great simple to read, easy to understand book.
THIS is the book to get. I doubt you can find a better one for self teaching.A step by step guide filled with knowledge.I am a guitar player that wanted to play piano and read music.I have played guitar 40 years but could not read music. if you are just starting out don't buy the notes to stick on your piano. you don't need them there are only seven notes that repeat over and over. if you can't remember CDEFGAB then maybe you should buy the notes. some people even write them on the keys. OMG.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Just what I was looking for.
Have purchased a number of books on playing the piano. All were helpful but left much unexplained and recommended a piano teacher. As a retired person, was not willing to go that route. This book is just what I found lacking in the others. Great buy.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great for the adult learner
I took piano lessons as a child, got through a 3rd grade book, so I started with a bit of theory already, but this book has already taught me even more theory. The short pieces are well chosen for adults, and are not so annoying as the ones in the children's piano books. I did not get the CD version, and I'm kind of wishing I had, as it would be good to know for sure what the piece should sound like. I've made a mistake or two in reading the notes. I'm reading more carefully now, though. I'm using both the adult book and a children's book, since I practice for an hour a day and I don't want to go too fast. I think it's important to internalize the lessons, and that has to go a bit slower. Anyway, I'm delighted with this book, and when I've finished it, I'm going to get the next one in the series.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Best thing next to lessons
This book is a piano course laid out specifically for adults. The content moves briskly, without skipping anything important. It logically builds upon whatever you had just learned. Many of the practice pieces actually sound quite nice. Coupled with some YouTube watching, this is the next best thing to private lessons or a class.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great practice book
This book is easy to use and it progresses gradually so you have time to absorb the information. The book explains everything you need to know about music. I will probably use this book in combination with other books because I am anxious to play more songs from the beginning.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great book for a great price
This is a great book. You will find some theorical lessons and also some practical guidelines. You do not need to search for another book to help you start playing the piano or keyboard. Give these books a second life by buying them used.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
