"A while ago I thought that it would not be a bad idea to make a small contribution to the stock of children's musical literature, which is very modest. I want to create a series of little individual pieces just for children, and with an attractive title, like Schumann's." So wrote Tchaikovsky about his charming collection of short pieces for young pianists. Walter Niemann's classic edition is a perfect resource for teachers and early-years pianists, a high-quality book designed with the needs of the practical musician foremost in mind.
