From an advertisement which appeared in the December 1901 issue of The Etude:
- "Music teachers who have been anxious to add something attractive and charming, as well as correctly fingered and accurately graded, to their material for teaching purposes will be delighted with this practical and winning series. Mrs. Ashford brings to her work many years of the most successful teaching and a fertility of mind in the invention of easy, delightful melodies given to very few composers of this class of music. Her schedule of the set is very bright and pleasing, but the music is even more so."
