Especially excited to see an arrangement of "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing" in here! Would have loved to see some of Florence Price's pieces for very early levels too. Overall though, I greatly appreciate how this truly starts at an early, early level--think Faber Piano Adventures Levels 1-3/RCM Levels A-2. Hoping more publications follow in Dr. Claiborne's lead in making these pieces regularly published and available!
