Easy Piano - Crowd pleasers

Hi everyone. My DS doesn't have a piano tutor at the moment, we're looking for one. In the meantime, I'm trying to keep him motivated with his piano playing but he's a bit fed up with the usual pieces. I'd like to buy him some music with a selection of 'crowd pleasers' (classical, blues, jazz and pop) but I'm not sure where to start. To give you an idea of his level, he'll be doing ABRSM Grade 2 in December. I would appreciate suggestions. Thank you all.

PianoWorks Collection music is good (one of the pieces in there is in the 2011 grade 2 exam - and has a couple of good jazzy pieces) - and Chester's easiest Christmas music (for Pre grade 2 and grade2).

My dd just got her Grade2 and finds these enough of a challenge, but easy enough to learn in 2 or 3 weeks...

Get Set Jazz has some brilliant pieces that really appeal to my students, particularly the boys. It's Grades 0 - 2 so useful for fun sight-reading preparation for the AB exam.
