Rock the Boat inspires young piano students with engaging music, titles and lyrics. The playful themes of cats and rats and music of the sea are sprinkled throughout.
Themes kids can relate to! The musical exploration in Rock the Boat helps the student to express their feelings through music. When a personal connection is made to a piece, a child’s playing can become nuanced and musical, even at the beginner level.
Teacher duets! The optional teacher duets further enrich the student’s sonic experience with rhythmic and harmonic support, and at times, counterpoint.
Reading fluency. Want music that sounds like real music yet helps your students become stronger readers? These pieces sound fun or beautiful, yet pedagogically also develop reading fluency in the early stages of staff notation. Each melody is designed to help the student learn to read confidently by predicting and using highly reliable signposts.
This is the Second Edition of Rock the Boat. Several pieces that were originally in the first edition have been moved to a companion volume in the Rock Collection SeriesTM which focuses on early improvisation and beginner note and rote pieces: Rock the Baby.

Reviews:
You compose unique, extraordinary, one of a kind sing along songs for kids! ~ Chloe
They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. Whoever “they” is. However, if you did so in regards to Rebekah Maxner’s newest piano book for early elementary students, Rock the Boat, you’d be justified. Every piece is as delightful as the colorful illustration on the cover suggest! ~ Natalie Weber – Music Maters Blog
