Excellent Textbook

I took a group piano class last year, with this as the text. From the very simple start, to the end with presentation pieces, it is very clear, progressive, and useful. A criticism: some theoretical things could be explained more thoroughly (example: transposition), but with an instructor's attention to those things, it all becomes very clear. Highly recommended.

Great Composite Book For Beginners

I took a piano class in college and this was the text that was used. I really enjoyed it because it isn't archaic like many piano books look, teach, and feel. I recently got back into piano and purchased this to help me get back into the swing of things. It's very detailed, has a wide selection, and most of all, it teaches from one lesson to the next in a slow manner so you don't get overwhelmed too quickly. Definitely worth the money if you want to get into piano!

Cheap, New, and Fast

My book came in under a week, brand new, and for less than anywhere else.
