I live in Hawaii and, after almost 40 years here, have begun to learn the ukulele. This book is SO MUCH FUN!!! I play the songs with my friends and we always end up cracking up. Some of the words are a riot. The chords are diagramed above the song so there is an instant reference. Though I have a stack of ukulele books, I recently traveled extensively and this book, Jumpin Jim's Gone Hawaiian, is the only book I took, and the only book I needed. It is like diving into a trip to Hawaii. The songs are easy enough to play, with some more challenging songs throughout so there is always an area for me to work on. I LOVE this book.
