For this book, Angel Bartolotta combines his love of drums and dinosaurs to create what he calls “The Dinosaur Method”, a teaching curriculum that uses dinosaur names to identify notes and rhythms that can be incorporated into playing the drum set. Fun for kids and adults, the book covers basic note reading, rudiments, combinations, beats, fills, and full songs. A fun and easy way to learn the drums! As mentioned in a Modern Drummer magazine review, “I have seen many beginner drum books written for young kids, and some of them use the same technique as Angel Bartolotta by choosing words to represent different rhythmic values and subdivisions. But none of them has done it as thoroughly as Angel.” Continuing with the review, they said this book, as well as Jawsome Drums, “are very well thought out and show the experience of someone who has been teaching for a long time.” *Illustrated by Daniel Hurd (known for his animation work on Netflix, Fox, and Hulu)
