excellent teaching tool! DWeaver I had this said back in 1998. It came with a Clark tin whistle and the book was much smaller and it came with a cassette. Somehow I lost the book and cassette but still had the penny whistle. I was thrilled to see it again on Amazon and couldn't resist. I ordered it again and this time to my surprise the book was much larger t. nice book ok - probable would not purchase again - can get most info on youtubeif you like a book though this is very nice. Song list- I'd want to know this before buying Here are the contents of this book so you can see for yourself whether it is a match for your ability and interest, and whether there are enough tunes you don't already have to make purchase worth your while.TUNES.OTHER CONTENTAu Clair de la LuneABCs of MusicBalmoral CastleAmerican Fife TunesBlue-Eyed Stranger, TheA Note About
