I am not 100% sure but I think there is a small pamphlet that comes with the set. You will need to purchase the mah jong cards--they are available on the American Mah Jong Association. There also have rule books for sale. Cards are published every year--most players like to get new ones. Hope this was helpful.

Yes but the best book for learning is a beginner's guide to American Mah Jongg by Elaine Sandberg

It comes with a pamphlet that helps some but you still need someone to teach you. It doesn't come with the 2014 play card. You have to order that separately and it will costs $9 plus shipping. You can purchase that through the American Mah Jong Association.com Cards come out for April each year (at least that's what I've been told). I hope you enjoy playing. The set I bought is very nice, in a hard case with pushers. You will however, need to buy some larger dice. The ones with the game are too small to read and others have told me the same thing about their sets. Happy Playing :-)

Yes it does but best book I found was A Beginner's Guide To American Mah Jongg by Elaine Sandberg

Yes. There's a book that tells how to play the game. However, a more detailed book which I purchased, called A Beginner's Guide to American Mah Jongg, by Elaine Sandberg, is excellent and goes into more detail. Learned this summer and play with our group twice a week usually.

There is an instruction sheet with the unit. Don't believe I ever saw a book nor would you need one.

It seems to me that it did have an instruction sheet, but I think we threw it out. We donated ours to a local church because our daughter used it like 5 times and it took up space. This is what I can remember: it played a couple of songs on one option, you could play the horns, pet the head/face, it had a leaf it would pretend to eat, but it wouldn't react if you kept that leaf in its mouth. I hope this helps some. Sorry it's so brief, we haven't had it for a long time. Sincerely, Tracey

Yes it does, but I would not recommend this player at all. I bought this player for one of my students and it broke after the second use.

Yes it does. It has a stylus but you can use your finger too. My 3 yr old daughter loves it! She plays it all the time!

Mark, I am sorry but I don't know. I never put an audio book on it. FYI it holds over 200 mp3 format songs. One thing I don't like about it is shuffle play does not work, even when the shuffle mode is activated. I hope this helps.

It depends on the mode of the book in the center. If the page is turned to ABCs, then when you press the piano keys, it sings the color of the key (i.e. Red, Yellow, etc). If the page is turned to music, then it plays a different melody for each piano key when you press them. I don't think at any point, it allows you to "play" the piano or make regular piano key noises.

yes -- it comes with a booklet and it also has a pretty easy to follow dvd...my nephew 8 yr old enjoys it!

Yes it does. It was a little tricky to find. Perhaps if I had used the book more I might have had an easier time finding it.

Yes, I bought for my kids. It's great for starters. It's helpful when learning to play.

Yes you just have to set up a play list in advance, or jump around your music to find what you want. I have different play lists for different activities.

Yes, this game comes with the black circular hub that you use to start off the game. It also has directions for other ways to play.

Yes! When I picked it up to read the package I pressed the button and it started to play. Grandson has one and loves it. Got this one as a gift for ourGodchild.

Yes it does. However, my book is quite thick and doesn't stay put as there isn't enough depth to the stand. A relatively thin book (half inch?) should work fine and so will sheet music.

Yes it does and it is quite handy if you don't have any musical experience.It is part of the box. It has 4 songs.

I don't remember other than reading the instructions which I think explained how to set it up. I've played several different formats without problem.
