Format:Paperback
I bough this book for my daughter(9) and she has used it to learn to play the recorder. She is quite a good player now. It progresses through from very easy, each tune teaching new notes and getting progressively harder.

My 8 year old has just started having recorder lessons and although she has been doing really well in class, this book have become invaluable in reminding her finger placement and notes. The book begins with basic tunes you can play using only the notes B, A and G, then adding another note one at a time. My daughter loves the fact I act like her 'teacher' and let her place a sticker on the page when she's mastered the tune and breathing in the right places.

As a "very easy" recorder tunes book and being aimed at 5+, I was left VERY disappointed... First of all there was no clear information at the begining about reading and playing the notes (there is a brief chart of all the notes at the back). Then by song 6 of 50 it add the need for the second hand and by song 20 (of 50) it adds the use of the high F - a tricky little note to play using the half thumb at the back and both hands at the front! In fact songs 20 and 21 also suggest you can try transposing the tunes to a different key to play by yourself too.
Hardly suitable for a 5 year old! I was very disappointed as I was recommened this book for a 5 year old beginner by an Usborne Rep. Not up to Usborne's usual standard...

Tunes book
OK for variety but tunes not known by children so they were not that interested - good to supplement other books
