Anyone who’s attended a Jake Shimabukuro concert or workshop knows how amiable and charismatic he is, not to mention what a remarkable ukulele player he is! With all of these abilities, it’s no wonder he’s great with kids, too. Hal Leonard is publishing his new book Ukulele for Young Beginners: Easy Lessons for Kids designed to inspire and excite kids with their first step into a lifetime of making music.

The books can be used by families or in a classroom setting. Each chapter includes a video lesson by Jake that’s accessed online where he provides age-appropriate instruction. The full-color book 9-inch x 6-inch book includes simple lessons with fretboard photos and fun supplemental activities to reinforce what the kids are learning from the videos. By the end of the book, the kids will be able to sing and strum familiar folk songs, ensuring that their first lessons with music are successful and rewarding. The songs include optional teacher chord frames so an adult can play along with the student making them sound even more professional.
