Yep, that's the one. It is sometimes slow going through this one, but
kids who stick with it for a while tend to learn to be very solidly
grounded in fundamentals, in my experience.

I didn't mean to imply that they couldn't play when they completed the
Easy Steps book, only that the clarinetist might do so and be fairly
unfamiliar with the B natural. Overall, I think Easy Steps is a very good
book.
