I took band in middle and part of high-school, this book breaks everything to the very basics and makes it very easy to understand after spending just one hour on this book I already feel more comfortable reading music. It is written for a child but that makes it easier for an adult.

Illustrations could be more professional looking

This has gotten to be my favorite theory course for younger students (age 6-9). My only complaint is that the illustrations could be more professional looking. As an example, I work with some very bright young students (around age 7) and they ALL comment that the Treble Clefs "look like they were drawn by a toddler"! I have to agree, but overall I really like this course.

Great for the beginner

My 7yo son is gaining a better understanding of music theory. He's been in guitar lessons for a few months now & his instructor, pleased with his rapid progress, wanted him to do some theory work over the summer. This is the book he recommended to us. Moves at a good pace, offers reinforcement of prior lessons with each subsequent lesson. A good first book of theory. (plus,since he is working with the guitar, this gives him the added benefit of some beginning understanding of piano/keyboard)
