Actually the pocket size book is $10.95. It is my favorite, although I
have heard various complaints about it (too small, fingerings are upside
down, etc.).

C014: Clarinet Fingerings (also known as 303 Clarinet Fingerings and 276
Trills) by Alan Sim. Twydds Music, U.K., SB, 56 pages. Covers the range
of the clarinet up to triple high G. Fingerings include notations of the
drawbacks of certain fingerings. Includes both half tone and whole tone
trills. Handy pocket size.

We also have the fingering book by Tom Ridenour, but it is mostly for the
altissimo register.
