My First Chess Book: 35 easy and fun chess-based activities for children aged 7 years + Paperback – 10 July 2014

Excellent advice for the novice/ young convert from draughts, with sufficent more in depth advice as the age and skill levels increase

This is a very useful book for those wanting to teach children chess. I have bought a copy for each of my two grandchildren. The book includes many small games, activities, which teach how chess pieces move. For example they can play 4 pawns against 4 pawns; you win if you capture all your opponent's pawns or get one of yours across first. Explanations are clear and useful. Accompanying illustrations are also helpful also. It is one of thee best chess books for children I have seen.

My kids like all the different games in it. They will read it and find it very educational

Really easy to understand and great pictures

My kids absolutely love this book - thy have sent hours pouring over it. It introduces simple concepts initially, demonstrating each by a game. The complexity then builds up so that towards the end, the game involves all pieces. Definitely for a beginner (child). Highly recommended.
