A great start if you're a beginner!

The best £3.87 I've ever spent. I bought a Uke just under a month ago and was trying to use YouTube and a book my hubby bought (which was good but seemed to focus on plucking rather than strumming tunes.) I was doing ok but I was getting frustrated with strumming evenly and in time and also then singing along. I was all but giving up on being able to play which annoyed me as I can already play another instrument (the flute) so was expecting it not to be so difficult learning another.

This book saved me from throwing my Uke out the window. The video tutorial was immensely helpful and encourages you to work up towards playing a tune at the proper speed and then singing along. You can replay as many times as needed. Now I have the background understanding of how the strumming works and some of the patterns I'm finding I can pick up tunes off YouTube or elsewhere and play them much more easily.

For those buying it as an ebook, don't worry you still get access to the video like you would I'd you had a hard copy. There is a link at the front of the book to click and you register with your email (the one attached to your Amazon account). The added bonus of the ebook is it's pennies compared to a hard copy.

Awful. I bought this book thinking that video access was part of the deal. Follow the link given to the internet website and it doesn’t exist. Video access? I don’t think so!

I keep going back and forth between 3 and 4 stars. I settled on 4 because the book is doing what I wanted. I am learning the ukulele. The DVD is actually a great addition to the book. It is very helpful, especially since I haven't heard of at least half the songs in the book. That's why I was debating the lower rating. The songs are super old and not engaging to anyone close to my age. I'm 37, just in case you were wondering. The songs are not the types of songs that inspire one to want to play. It becomes tedious to work through. I'm not expecting Lady Gaga, Beyonce, or Adele, but something from this century would be nice, or something with a hawaiian/tropical feel. I'd take Margarita Ville or a 50's song. Anything!!!

The songs are:
He's Got the Whole World
Pay Me My Money Down
When The Saints Go Marching In
Streets of Laredo
Tom Dooley
Worried Man Blues
Banks of Ohio
Jamaica Farewell
Amazing Grace
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
The Sloop John B.
O Mary Don't You Weep
Midnight Special
