 Usborne First Skills: Starting Chess

Summary: Starting Chess covers everything a young player needs to know, from how to set out the pieces to special moves and tactics.

Review: I never played chess before and thought it was about time I learned…with a children’s book. This is a helpful book for beginner chess players of all ages. The basics are introduced and the practice examples are especially helpful. This book should give confidence to the beginner player enough to have him or her say “checkmate!” at the end of a fun game.
