Yes it starts on a D, No, no G sharps or B flats in. unless you're looking at the harmony in which case the piano music does have some.

The pitching is basically the same, but there are rhythmic differences and alot more to the tune.

Are you wanting to prepare this for grade 3, in which case you really need to get the book?
