My First Book of Cowboy Songs

Parents and teachers know how trying a child’s early piano practice sessions can be. But those first exercises don’t have to be tedious and boring. The 21 traditional cowboy songs in this book, perennial favorites with adults, are just as sure to appeal to children. As eager young pianists play them over and over for their catchy melodies, their playing skills will improve effortlessly. They’ll practice not because they have to, but because they want to.
