love it. simple book for a starter. love it.It is for my kid's lesson. I bought it for my kid's piano lesson. It was recommended by her teacher.The Only Books I Teach From This is the only series of piano books out there that has really stood the test of time. I first came in contact with them when I was grade school and taking piano lessons myself. 30 years later, they are the only books I teach from. I enjoy the pace they use and the progression of skills that they offer. So often books skip around or don't build well on previous skills. That is not the case with Bastien.
