Reviews"This text presents complete coverage of knowledge needed to be successful in teaching strings in the public schools. It is well-organized and easy to reference, and presents accurate, systematic, and fun ways to teach complex skills to children. I believe this text represents the highest standard for string pedagogy writing. . . . with the DVD it will be even more successful as a teaching tool. Bravo!"--Brenda Brenner, Indiana University
