Excellent for scales
I have been using this book with my students for years. Easy to follow fingerings, has the relative minor scale immediately following the major. Follows the circle of fifths. Just wish the print could be larger as some students find it difficult to read.

Cheap, Useful Guide to Chords, Scales, Arpeggios.
I didn't realize this would be so flimsy and short. But my friend, a four-time soloist at Carnegie Hall's Weill Room who taught piano in high school, recommended it for me. At 47, I went back to piano (35 years since quitting classical). It's helpful but very bare. Not much explanation. Just a bunch of sheet music, basically. If you want more music theory/analysis, get another book. But this is cheap and gives a good sense of drills.

Great Value to boost your physical skills.
An amazing amount of scales for almost all levels. I am currently working through the Bastien Piano Basics Level 3 books. They are great for me, and I love that they aren't just about a quick learning experience but they teach you the fundamentals as well as the vocabulary necessary to learn the music and the instrument. The Arpeggios and chords are helpful since they are all listed by the key. To me, there is so much to learn with the piano, and it is great to have this as a reference.
