Excellent Starter Book
This is a lovely book and just what we wanted to get my nephew up and running with his new uke. Fun songs, easy to follow and I even had a little look and was surprised to see that ukulele is actually much easier than I first thought. Very happy with this purchase, and it was half the price of the other kids books ( which is why I initially chose it !). Recommended.

easy to use
my 13 year old wanted to learn to play and this book really helped her get some of the foundations down, all on her own.

Great Beginning Uke Book for Kids
My grandson is 6 years old, in very early stages of learning to read. Loves music. Has "played" several instruments - all tuned to an open-G. Thought it was time for him to begin training the left hand, and so...gave him a uke for Christmas. Got this book to to assist in the left hand training. Looking through it, I believe it will be an excellent tool to help him (with my assistance) learn the mechanics of to chording an instrument. This book reminds me of the book that came with my first stringed instrument - a Silvertone (Sears) ukelele, about mid-1950's. Excellent!

This is a fun easy book to learn the ukulele with
This is a fun easy book to learn the ukulele with. When it comes to learning up and down strokes and singing along while you play it couldn’t get any easier than the way this book teaches it. I have bought three books so far so yes I would recommend it to any beginner. Got to start somewhere

Good starter resource but could be optimized for kindle
I’m a ukulele player and elementary music teacher. This is a pretty good resource for young musicians. Language is at a good reading level for early elementary (my daughter is 5 and gifted and reads this easily). Good progression of chords, exactly the order I already teach my students. Some suggestions/gripes: 1. It could be in color. Why is it black and white? 2. It encourages students to strum from their wrist. This can be dangerous and lead to carpel tunnel syndrome. Better to encourage them to strum from the elbow. 3. Since this is a kindle file, why not add some simple audio recordings so students can check if they’re playing it correctly? Overall, pretty good resource but with lots of room for improvement.

Helpful book
I bought this for my teenage students can tinker around on ukuleles and explore in the song book. It's very easy to follow but not too immature for teen learners. I'd recommend this for any age students. I've enjoyed playing through it myself.

Elejí esta calificación porque quedé completamente satisfecho con el material de enseñanza ahí mostrado. Un libro pequeño, pero con gran potencial de sacarle jugo a la información ahí presentada.

It arrived 1 day earlier in good condition. The color blue is not the same as the picture, but it is actually better, it is light blue and it is for my 6 yr old daughter. She loves it. Good quality and perfect package i.e. it includes tuner.

Parece dibujado hace mil años. No es nada práctico para un niño. Promete algo que no cumple y además está anticuado y mal diseñado.

My daughters have just turned 4 and 6 so I wanted a very, very simple child-friendly Uke book we could use as a family. This is about as simple as it gets and while the kids are not yet truly fluent readers with adult guidance they've been able to go through it exploring the concept of frets, nots, chord and rhythms. The book therefore does exactly what I wanted. There are not that many songs in the book but they are super-familiar ones so easy to work with as everyone knows the tune.
