If you are looking for something to challenge your students with, this is perfect. Rhythms are fun and there are a variety of key and time signatures as well as loads of articulation to be considered. Pieces are typically one page. The last piece in the book is a compilation of variations that can be played in any order and as a duet, trio etc. I can't wait to try this!! These are perfect for the student that enjoys challenges and wants to step out of the box of predictability.

I recommend it. Very nice engaging musical material. Especially, if you are looking something for all ages beginners, and if you are hate method books :-)

Having so much fun with this music and realizing even more the true magic of Elissa - Brilliant! I was first inspired with the polyrhythms and variation of articulation in beginner collections.The titles are refreshing and descriptive with the following tempo suggestions - glistening, Beware, Alarming, Gleeful, Ready to Pounce, Laid-back, Pleased, etc. there are even more!I'm even learning about some new animals - Echidna and Bandicoot!This last element is even more brilliant: At the conclusion of Very Easy Little Peppers and Easy Little Peppers, are pieces titled, Peas in a Pod. These are not only aleatoric music in regard to indeterminate arrangement of the eight parts in performance, but ALSO these eight parts may be played together as a duet, duo, or even with 3-4 people playing simultaneously and beginning on a different part! I have two more books, and I'm sure to be more amazed

Elissa Milne has composed a book of easily accessible, fun, jazzy pieces that pre-preliminary students can play. The music uses patterns that are easy to follow and learn, and the pieces sound great - really the thing you need to inspire children who are fed up with their regular music book! They'll love it, I have bought the whole series and my love them.
