This is a great beginner’s book. Easy to understand for my child who was 10 when they started. Highly recommend this book. Charlotte is an excellent guitar teacher.

It’s my third time to try to learn the Guitar, and Chalotte’s book was a big help. I liked it so much I ordered a few more of hers, and I’m almost getting to the point I can play my first song.
