"The Lion King: Flute"
Published by Hal Leonard
CD Included - No
Pages - 15
I bought this mainly for "Circle of Life" and "Can You Feel The Love Tonight", though "Hakuna Matata" is also a fun tune. Music is also included for "I Just Can't Wait To Be King" and "Be Prepared". There is a mistake in the listing - this book does not contain 14 songs.
