  • This is the easiest of the seven World of Harmony Music books, and is the best for beginners and young children.
  • Contains 28 favorite children's songs, arranged and sized for "Melody Harp", "Small World Toys", "Music Maker", and T.K. O'Briens zithers. (NOT FIRST ACT) If the music cards for your zither measure 4" across the top, 12" across the bottom, and 8" vertically, these books should work for your zither.
  • Just play the notes in the order shown on the music sheets, instant success. Tuning guide and rhythm lessons included.
  • Now available, look for my separate companion book of harmony parts for each song in this book, so duets can be played on a second zither.


These are one-of-a-kind music books designed for your Music Maker, Yerbonitsa, Small World Toys, T.K. O'Brien, and Melody Harp zithers or lap harps. (For Melody Harps, tune F strings to F sharp. Strings may line up near middle of note stem rather than note head.) Book is smaller than a standard Yerbonitsa, but the notes line up correctly. Zither is shown but NOT included. NOT FOR FIRST ACT OR HAPPY HAPE ZITHERS! This is the best book for beginners. It contains the following 28 childhood favorites, including lyrics: Alouette, B-I-N-G-O, Cockadoodledoo, Deck the Halls, Do Your Ears Hang Low?, Five Little Ducks, Frere Jacques, If You’re Happy and You Know It, Jingle Bells, Joy to the World, Kookaburra, Little Bunny Foo Foo, I’m a Little Teapot, London Bridge, My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean, Oh Susanna, Old MacDonald, Pop Goes the Weasel, All the Pretty Little Horses, Rockabye Baby, She’ll Be Comin’ ‘Round the Mountain, Shortnin’ Bread, The Bear Went Over the Mountain, This Old Man, Three Blind Mice, Twinkle Twinkle / ABC Song, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Yankee Doodle.

I found a lap harp at a thrift store and figured it would be a great instrument for my 6 year old. This purchase was perfect. Fits our lap harp perfectly and is very easy to follow. My 6 year old is doing very well in the short amount of time we have had the music sheets. We also found seller on YouTube with a very helpful video on tuning our lap harp. Very satisfied.

I have no complaints with this product. The fact is I have nothing but compliments to give to the author. Thank you for a good product.

I have had the harp for 25 years but several of the sheets had gone missing after multiple grandchildren had explored their inner composer and musician. Having new, fresh, sheets from which to follow the notes and play a recognized melody, is lovely. Another grandchild is the recipient of the sheet music and the harp.

Very basic little songs we all know and love.

My 4 year old has begun playing my old MusicMaker harp, and I was so relieved to find this collection of music. So many of the sets I looked through were full of songs with which she'd have no familiarity. She LOVES these and plays them every day! I do wish the pages were a little wider. They slide about a 1/2 inch out the top of the harp which messes up the alignment of the notes and lines. I'm thinking of adding a bit of tape along the sides of the pages at the top to make them wider.

Over all, quite good. I do want to speak to it as it relates to the Hape Happy Harp. In short, it's not totally compatible. It works, but not completely. You kinda have to jam it in/up to really get the notes to line up. In addition, a couple songs call for one note lower than what the Happy Harp has. I doubt my kid will care much, but still a bit disappointing.

Another perfectly crafted collection of music from World of Harmony Music. These people are true professionals and the songs here are all perfect for the instrument you own. I have tried other sheet music and nothing is as good as what the World of Harmony people have created. I play these songs with my kids and they love them. Adults love the songs too. The mind has a tender place for musical memories. These songs bring back all the fun you had as a child and smiles appear all around. Playing music to your child is an activity they will never forget and cherish for the rest of their lives (I know I do). Even if you are not a musician, these songs are so easy to play that within moments your inner Motzart is released and your children will be mesmerized and wanting you to play more and more (which is a good reason to buy all the volumes of World of Harmony Music)!
