Teaching Little Fingers to Play: A Book for the Earliest Beginner (John Thompsons Modern Course for The Piano)

A series for the early beginner combining rote and note approach. The melodies are written with careful thought and are kept as simple as possible, yet they are refreshingly delightful. All the music lies within the grasp of the child's small hands.

Good first book for learning piano, but our teacher requested we get another book to accompany this, since this one moves a little too fast for our kindergartener.

From: Amazon Posted: Oct 13, 2007 Type: User Review Just as I remember.

My grandmother had this book at her house when I was a child. I taught myself how to play piano ( a little bit) with it. I am going to use it to teach my children.

From: Amazon Posted: Oct 11, 2007 Type: User Review NOT for the earliest beginners

Despite what the title says, "A Book For The Earliest Beginner", I feel that it's not for the kids younger than 6 or 7. Requiring to read the music notes on the lines right from the beginning is too much for the kids who barely know alphabets....

From: Amazon Posted: Jan 15, 2007 Type: User Review Very good

A little more challenging for my 4 year old than expected. But shows we need to work at it more. He wants to originally just jump on the piano, but the practice without the piano was tought.

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 02, 2005 Type: User Review My kids love it! Cute pictures, and it progresses very gradually

One of my sons just loves playing these songs as a supplement to his Suzuki instruction. They are catchy and progress very gradually--much more gradually than the Suzuki repetoire. Then, his twin brother, whom I've tried for years to interest...
