The 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' Book for Cello uses fifty variations on the tune of 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' to reinforce basic finger patterns and rhythms on the cello. Easy rhythms and slur patterns are included, with each short variation focusing on a specific technique. Intended for use after The Hot Cross Buns Book for Cello, this book also has larger notes, making it ideal for younger beginning students. Knowing the Notes for Cello and Cello Book One could be used after this book.
