This book is part of the ever-popular Baker's Dozen series by Shelley Stevens. With twelve tunes instead of the usual thirteen, this set of arrangements for young hands features both one-sting (melody string only) and two-string (melody and middle strings) versions of nearly every song in the book.

Familiar tunes to get young hands comfortable playing the dulcimer. Awesome!

From the Hills of Connemara to the Cliffs of Doneen

I likely won't get all of them, but "Baker's Dozen #1 Celtic Music" by Shelley Stevens is my third Baker's Dozen book. Two jigs in the book qualify as covering the cost of admission: Swallow Tail Jig and Black Nag, which is double jig. Both require using a capo on the first fret, but no other songs need one. Many of the tunes require strumming brightly and are quite lively. I was even able to create a pleasing medley by combining the book's The Sally Gardens with a version of Sally in the Garden.

BAKER'S DOZEN #13 PATRIOTIC

My dulcimer group bought this book for playing at veteran homes. Great collection and nice to be able to take one book and go

Shelley's Books #11, #3, #11

I now have all her books, I ordered her other books for our group, so we all have the same. The simplicity of her books make it nice for advanced and some beginner players. Hyms for 2 is great, a much fuller sound ,

Great Books

Shelley is a great dulcimer player and a superior arranger of tunes. Her books are perfect examples of this. I'm glad to have them.
