Each lesson is explained in plain language that's easy to understand, with three irresistable guitar experts leading the way: a clever classical dog, one cool jazz cat, and a friendly alligator who loves the blues. They keep attention focused by pointing out what's important on each page and help students learn by making music fun! Students hear how the music should sound by listening to the included CD, which contains additional tools when played on a computer such as a chord dictionary and guitar tuner. Book 1 teaches basic music symbols, how to read chord frames and strum three-string chords, and reading the notes in 1st position on the first three strings to play simple single-note melodies. Book 2 covers four-string chords, the notes in first position on the 3rd, 4th and 5th strings, tempo markings, dynamic signs, and more! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great Guitar Method for Young ChildrenI have been teaching classroom music for over 30 years. I also teach guitar. I was always afraid to begin young children on guitar, because the coordination was too difficult for them. I discovered The Kid's Guitar Course, Book 1 and Book 2 a few years ago. It is kid friendly. It has only a little music on each page, has fun pictures and clear explanations. A few years ago, I had several parents approach me to teach a guitar class to second graders. I have been using this book with the matching ... Read More Rating:  - Decent, not greatI don't think this book is quite as great as some other reviews have made it out to be, but it has been better for my couple of younger students than the Mel Bay book. The smaller, easier 3 string chord forms are good for young kids that don't have hands big or strong enough to play full 5 and 6 string chords. Towards the end there is a good mixture of single notes and chords which is nice. The variety of songs do a decent job of teaching about different rhythms and rests. However, I'm not crazy about ... Read More Rating: - One of the Best Methods for the Early BeginnerThis is one of THE BEST methods out there for the young guitar student learning to play pick style guitar. The book and enhanced C.D. are excellent instructional tools. I've used this book for a few years in private instruction and just started using it in my young beginners group guitar class with great success in both areas. The text starts with three-string chords and progresses through various rhythmic combinations (though never using eighth notes) with the C,G,G7, and D7 chords. Along ... Read More Rating:  - Great for young kids. Best parts are the three-string chords. After reading the positive reviews on this book, I ordered it to help me get my kids (8 and 11) started on guitar. They are learning on a steel string acoustic, so they are both still working on properly fretting, but this method is a great way to get kids started. I had never before seen the three-string chords presented, and these are great. Three of the most commonly used chords can be played by fretting only one string! Once the kids learn a few of these, there are many songs they can play along with, ... Read More Rating: - This is a great series!I've been teaching guitar for the past two years, and with my young students (5 to 11 yrs old) this is a highly effective series. I recently got the flash cards to use as a teaching aid, and the results were immediate even with my most challenging students. The Kids Guitar series has a clear focus on both music theory and guitar technique. It is fun and engaging for the students, and builds gradually through a series of exercises until the student is comfortable playing all six strings in the first position ... Read More
