Used in conjunction with the drum kit for school

The drum book I received is absolutely not what is shown in the listing. What I received is called “Introducing Drum Kit Part 1”. The listing also claims that it comes with a CD. It did not come with a CD. Instead, it offered a download link.
I will return this for an exchange and if I get the product that is actually shown here, I may change the review.

Does the job.

The is a good book for the beginner, and my son is learning the drums at school. He is following it well which is testament to the style and audience of the book. I found the price a little expensive (£10) hence one star knocked off, but for content I can’t really fault it.

I received this book today. I have been working from “The Drumset Musician” and “Stick Control for the Snare Drummer.” “Introducing Drum Kit” is a one stop shop for the beginner, however. It covers the basics in a more broad way. It has some very easy play along “songs” to get you started. Playing along with music is a skill in itself. It’s good to start with some very simple pieces to get you used to just playing along, counting the bars, etc.
“The Drumset Musician” is also a great book but feels a little more like an encyclopaedia of drum patterns than a “teach yourself” book. It is good for doing exercises and learning different beat patterns, but there is no structure in it that tells you how to progress.
I would certainly recommend “Introducing Drum Kit” for beginners. The note at the end of the book says that once you’ve completed it you are ready to start learning grade 1 pieces.
