More advanced than Level 1
I am a piano teacher and have used this series as a supplement to the Piano Adventures method. While I love the selections in this book, I feel it is too advanced for Level 1 students. The very first piece introduces flats, a concept which is not covered by Piano Adventures until the last third of the book. All but one of the pieces include eighth notes, a concept not even introduced until level 2A. Only the Sleeping Beauty Waltz truly correlates with the method at this level.

Best used with MIDI Files
I am a piano teacher, and I use these Faber books in conjunction with the MIDI files (also published by FJH) and the computer software program Home Concert Xtreme[...].
