A Great Book - A Great Buy!
I've been playing the piano for almost five years now and the music was not too hard to learn at all. Some of the songs like "I'm a Believer", "Bad Reputation" or "I'm On My Way" aren't exactly suited for piano but all the other songs sound beatiful. "All Star" actually does sound good on the piano if you really work at it. (at least the first few pages of it do) And also Donkey's version of "I'm a Believer" is NOT in here so if you're looking for that song you'll be disappointed. Overall this book is great and I play from it whenever I get the chance!

This Book Is Great!!
I live in the UK, and this book was shipped really quickly. Furthermore, it's fantastic! Although 1 or 2 of the songs don't sound that great on the piano, like 'Allstar,' the rest, particularly ballads, were great, and the extra information; how the film was made, the character's voices, who wrote the music etc was a fantastic bonus! Worth the money, and a brilliant book!

Shrek is the Best!
Shrek is the best movie ever, with the best soundtrack. this book is great if you loved tracks from the movie like Smashmouth's remake of The Monkeys' "I'm a Beliver" and others. some great piano solos are Halleighluia [I know I'm not spelling that right] which sounds oh-so-melancholy, "You Belong To Me", and "My Beloved Monster". also try the music from the original score like "True Love's First Kiss." the only one's I'd skip are "Like Wow" which does not sound good on the piano and "All Star." all in all, a great book. I've been playing piano for six years and I'm thirteen now, and this book [though easy] was fun. my little brothers love to sing along!

SHREAK IS GREAT!!!!!!!!!
Shrek has some great music although I havent the book I love the music and recommend it to readers. It isn't as difficult as some but difficult enough to make it fun to listern to. Thanks for listerning.

Great music, not all is suited for piano
There is a lot of good music in this book, especially "Hallelujah" and "You Belong to Me". These, along with the instrumental pieces, translated to piano very well. Some of the others simply weren't intended for the medium and don't give the same sense of satisfaction when playing. For example, "Stay Home" is a great song, but playing it sounds repetitive and not as full as, say, "True Love's First Kiss". Overall, though, it is a good book with some excellent pieces.

wonderful to play
this book is filled with wonderful songs that are easy but challenging to play. Some books you buy have only a couple songs that sound good on the piano but in this book all the songs are awesome. If u loved the movie shrek i suggest buying this book.

Just What You Need!
After seeing the movie and buying the soundtrack I was captavated by the music but I was reluctant to buy the sheet music because most movie sheet music books contain hacked up versions of the music you hear in the movie, or they dont even have that song you want. But this has all the good ones and very good adaptations too! I recommend this!!!

Amazing in every way!
I've played piano for 10 years and I find this book perfect! It is challenging without being overly difficult. If you loved the movie, which I did, you'll find that it has EVERY song that was in the movie, even donkey's version of "I'm A Believer"! Buy it now!!
