Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 17: Acclaimed author and music educator Vanshika Verma Khare has launched her fourth book in the popular Playing Keyboard Made Easy series. Titled “Playing Keyboard Made Easy: Chords and Notations of Nursery Rhymes,” the book is a unique, child-friendly guide that helps children learn keyboard through simple notations and easy-to-follow chords.
The new release features 12 globally loved nursery rhymes, each aligned with one of the 12 major scales, offering children an enjoyable, structured, and accessible musical learning experience. The rhymes include:
- Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
- Mary Had a Little Lamb
- London Bridge Is Falling Down
- Row Row Row Your Boat
- Are You Sleeping
- Rain Rain Go Away
- Old MacDonald Had a Farm
- Jingle Bells
- Wheels on the Bus
- Finger Family
- Baby Shark
- Happy Birthday
The book begins with a detailed theory section that explains the naming of keys, chord formation, and major scales. Like all books in the series, it uses the Scientific Pitch Notation System (C, D, E, F, G, A, B), eliminating the need to learn complicated staff notations. This allows children — even complete beginners — to start playing songs instantly.
“My vision was to make music enjoyable and simple for every child. Scientific pitch notations allow young learners to play songs without needing to understand sheet music. With practice, they can easily master both melody and chords,” says author Vanshika Verma Khare.
The book is available in two formats:
- Kindle Edition, self-published via KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing)
- Paperback Edition, published by Inkscribe Publisher
Parents and readers can purchase the book directly from Amazon here:

Vanshika also applauds KDP for empowering new authors. “KDP makes publishing extremely smooth. You can update content anytime, design your own cover, and publish a complete book in just three days,” she shares.
She adds, “I have plans to write more and more books on keyboard learning. My aim is to make music accessible, enjoyable, and easy to learn for every age group.”
