My son and I like the book May 22, 2008

My son (5 yr old) finished prep course level A and B. Instead of go into C, I decide switch him to regular course. This 1B is continuation from prep B. So far both I and my son like the material in 1B.
There are lots of piano teaching methods out there: Alfred, Piano Adventure, Hal Leonard, John Thompson, Music Tree, Piano Town, just to name a few. There are also lots of debates on which method is better. One of the major criticism of Alfred basic piano library is that it's fixing student's hand position. We only onto 1B, so we don't know if it'll be a problem later on.
But the music in these Alfred books are good. My son likes them and like to play them, that's all it matters. I also bought both Piano Adventure and Hal Leonard and I like the music in Alfred better.

I purchased both 1 A and 1 B for a friend who knows nothing about music but wanted to be able to teach her seven year old daughter basic keyboard playing. The books are excellent for this purpose. They are clear, well-paced and make learning fun from the beginning.

Book was recommended by my child's piano teacher. It is kid friendly and easy to read.
loved the music May 20, 2009
K. G. Hoffman (Melbourne, FL)
My daughter (now 9) has been using the Alfred's basic books for 3 years now, and the music from the Lesson books is almost always wonderful. The Recital book pieces tend to be a little harder; the lesson pieces are almost always fun and sound great.
Books are great for beginners November 16, 2009

My Mom is currently teaching my daughter how to play the piano with this series of books. She said that the books are sequential and easy to follow for all levels.
