Chris Garrett said Fun and Fabulous. Really love this one! I play cover to cover a couple of times each week. Cake walk is fantastic -- actually easier to play than it sounds. I've yet to keep up with the speed on the recordings, but I'll get there.. "Add this one to your collection!" according to EcoMom. There are quite a variety of tunes in this book to keep all levels of uke players busy! I opened it and was tickled to see a tune ("Britches in Stitches") that my son learned to play on a tin whistle in an Irish music class. Now I can accompany him with my ukulele. I was also glad to see some Clawhammer style instruction included in this book. I like that there's no CD to deal withjust an easy-to-use link and code for the Hal Leonard site, where you can download all the tunes. Great book to add to your ukulele instruction book collection..
