pwentworth1965: I bought this book thinking it was going to be good to learn with. This is actually for someone at a more intermediate level that can always read music.

brian booth: I have no connection to the supplier. Key point: what constitutes a ‘classic’? I couldn’t find a list of contents on Amazon, and the supplier should correct this. Should I expect Beatles or nursery rhymes?
All said, high production values and a comprehensive chord chart. Great for a beginner, I believe, yet still useful for guitarists of any type picking up a uke for the first time. Don’t buy until you know what it contains - Twinkle Twinkle might be something for your kids, but you probably won’t find the songs you grew up with.
When you have heard someone play ‘Paranoid’ on an electric ukulele, through a fuzz-wah, you have lived.

Claudio: Perfetto per introdurti all uso dell hokulele

Rhonda S. Hogarth: This book is designed perfectly for players of all levels. It has tabs, chords diagrams and regular notation so you have the best of all three needs in music. Use the tabs to help learn to put notes to finger position, and the chord diagrams to learn to strum during singing parts. Or mix it all up and do your own thing. I liked that the selection of songs included were across a wide range of styles. Most were tunes that are timeless, having been included in every song collection for decades (Aura Lee, Streets of Laredo). Others are more modern- Like Morning Has Broken. They appear to all be in the key of C, so not much fiddly hard chords or notes to frustrate the player. You might need a heavy clip to hold the pages open as you play, or have the book hole punched or spiral bound at a place like Staples.

Bonita W.: What I like about it is the picking patterns in the back. These are great. And the cords. Yes songs are beginner but they have tabs. If you can only get a couple of books to begin your journey make this one of them. For the strumming and picking patterns alone. I’m glad I found it due to my Amazon reminder

Lady T: Couldn’t have picked a better product already learning three songs from the book! Great price and easy to read.

Ian Jay: But the pages feel a little cheap for the price paid.
Other than my minor gripe at the cost vs paper quality, I'd say buy it. It does what it says.
