Reddit reviews The Christmas Fake Book: C Edition

I started with children nursery rhymes. I don't know what they sing to children over in Sweden, but in America they sing:

• Old McDonald has a farm
  
• Skip to My Lou
  
• Alphabet Song / Twinkle Twinkle little star / Bah Bah Black Sheep
  
• Oh My Darling Clementine
  
• Kumbaya (really good with chords! Very natural 1st position tune with chords)
  
• Rock a bye baby
  
  Just... all of the children songs you can remember. You might be able to recreate them from memory by just messing around with the harmonica!
  
  These songs are typically played from holes 4 through 7 and very easily. They don't go up or down octaves very much, and don't require any advanced techniques. F is... an odd key to buy. But if you find some tabs for these songs you won't have to worry about transcription. Just play 7B 7B 7B and you're good.
  
  Eventually, you'll want to be able to read music so that you can buy Fake Books to learn new songs from. Most seem to be in the key of C

  I also was taught in grade school, and remember my first songs on a Trumpet. There are some specifically crafted beginner music like "Hot Cross Buns", "Musical Scale (C D E F G A B C -- C B A G F E D C)" that definitely help a lot.
  
  But the nostalgia of playing the simple songs of my childhood makes it more fun to play "Old McDonald" over the synthetic practice that comes from classroom-based practice.
