From the Publisher

Praise for “My First Piano Book” & “My First Piano Pieces, Puzzles & Activities”

from Sally Holland & David Barton

“[These] two outstanding new publications are set to become my ‘go-to’ material for teaching five-year-olds… The approach is perfect for the age group and the author’s intention to provide a gateway to music through the piano accords exactly with my own ethos. The pieces are tuneful so I know that little pianists will love them, and the emphasis is on developing musicianship holistically, encouraging children to explore the piano creatively and to sing as well as play. My First Piano Book is a work of art, with child-inspiring illustrations, and the accompanying activities book has line-drawings that children can colour in, bringing back memories of that simple childhood joy!”

– Sandy Holland, music educator, pianist and examiner

“Karen Marshall must be one of the few people who has inspired as many teachers as she has students… Whilst there are many such early-stage piano tutor books on the market, there are few which place such a strong emphasis on the development of musicianship as these do.”

– David Barton Music
