Worth buying My only complaint is that this book is a bit small. I mean the dimensions of the book are something like 7"x9" or so. The problem with that is that the text is small and it is hard to get it to stay open. Other than that, I like it.. Great inspiration for reluctant tin whistlers! My daughter has embraced her tin whistle now that she has this book! Great inspiration for reluctant tin whistlers!. Great Songs with Annotations Great songs! They seem to be converted very well to tin whistle annotations so following them is very easy.
