My daughter loves taking piano but I was not too happy when her new teacher requested we buy 4 books for her - thinking Expensive. I was wrong thanks to Amazon! I looked on the site she recommended and they were almost $30 Each! I purchased all 4 for under $30 here on Amazon. Thanks Amazon!!P.S. The books are exactly what she needed - correct edition, new and came really quickly. Amazon helped turn dread around!
