Lesson Book A with CD
Nancy and Randall Faber
Three distinguishing features of the Lesson Book A make it unique and effective for the young 5 and 6 year-old beginner:

1. The strong focus on technique embedded in the book through playful technique games, chants, and carefully-composed pieces that gently lead the child into pianistic motions.

2. The outstanding CD for the young student to listen, sing, tap, and play along with at the piano. The orchestrated songs on the CD feature children singing the lyrics, which has great appeal to the 5 and 6 year-old beginner. The CD becomes a ready-made practice partner that guides the student and parent for all the pieces and activities in the books.

3. The fanciful art features five multi-cultural children who are also learning to play. These "friends at the piano" introduce basic rhythms, white key names, and a variety of white and black-key songs that span classical, folk, and blues.

Young students will listen, sing, create, and play more musically with Nancy and Randall Faber's My First Piano Adventure™, Lesson Book A.

Writing Book A
Nancy and Randall Faber

Developing the ear and training the eye of the young child is a key component of the Writing Book A.

Tucker, the mascot dog who loves to LISTEN, is always on the scene as the young child imitates, matches, and creates rhythmic and melodic patterns. The multi-cultural friends present improvisation and simple, guided composition activities.

Blinker, the owl who loves to LOOK, helps students recognize patterns of rhythms and notes, and introduces sightreading.

The Writing Book offers a holistic, musical approach to theory through discovery, creativity, imagination, and fun!

Writing Book B
Nancy and Randall Faber

64 pages of fun-filled activities support the music learning process. Reading steps on the staff is a primary focus of Book B. The inventive Writing Book guides young players in reading, hearing and creating with steps on the Grand Staff. Teachers will welcome the special "C.L.A.P. for Sightreading" pages, designed to reinforce and celebrate note-reading.

Students touch on music history with Mozart's and Beethoven's Fun Facts and Games and take a peek into Beethoven's Composing Room.

Tucker, Blinker and Tap return with ear-training, sightreading, and rhythm fun. Then there is also the Tooth Fairy Visit, Rhythm Beads, Escape of the Quarter Notes... and much more.

Writing Book C (the companion book for Lesson Book C) provides 64 colorful, fun-filled pages of writing, ear-training and "CLAP for Sightreading" activities. A focus on reading skips leads students to cross bridges, connect flags, meet a mouse, and skip to deep-sea treasures, to name just a few!

Writing Book C engages children in the lives and melodies of classical composers introduced in the Lesson Book C. Take part in Haydn's Fun Facts and Game, make after-dinner music with Mozart, tap Beethoven's rhythms, and help Tchaikovsky tell the story of a doll with a broken arm.

The valuable educational activities and vibrant illustrations of My First Piano Adventure are sure to delight the young beginner and teacher.

Book C of the Fabers' young beginner method continues the staff-reading adventure with the introduction of skips (3rds). Students first explore skips aurally and kinesthetically across the full range of the keyboard. A delightful variety of songs follow which carefully and comfortably guide the child toward line-line and space-space staff recognition.
