Trombone book for a beginner

DS1, who is 10, has been learning the trombone at school for a year now. He's enjoying it and seems to be progressing ok (I find the teacher a bit flaky, and there seem to be lots of short / missed lessons, but that's another issue....).

However he's never had a proper book, just single pieces on a sheet of paper, and I was wondering about buying one for him to try over the holidays, preferably with a CD so he can play along to an accompaniment. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks in advance!

I'd second the easy winners too.

I'll have a look ok later in the week to see what else we had (2 trombone players here), I can't for a couple of days

Thank you! Have hsd a look, and they look ideal. Might start with Easy Winners and go from there.

Hi, My DD's first trombone books included:
Easy Winners by Peter Lawrence - comes with a CD
Easy Jazzy 'Tudes by Mark Nightingale - comes with a CD
First Book of Trombone Solos edited by Peter Goodwin and Leslie Pearson
and
The Magic Trombone Edited by Nicholas Hare
One of more of those may be suitable?
