"Not only does [this book] teach the fundamentals of chess in an easy to understand format, it is full of color pictures so you can see what is being talked about. This book even goes further in the second half, teaching you some basic strategies to winning the game. My ten-year-old read the entire book in one sitting, not because he loves to read (which he does), but because he loves to win."―Steve Taylor
"My students absolutely love board games, and chess is one of their interests. I am a novice in this game, and this book has helped me and other students learn the rules of the game and how to win! All the activities have clear, colorful artwork so you can see exactly where pieces should be on the chessboard. There are also helpful hints and tips throughout, and if you’ve ever forgotten how a piece moves or need to brush up on a rule, look at the 'Starting Out' section for a reminder."―Tanya Lu

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand ,I recommend
Love the book! I am still working through it, I am trying to beat my 8 year old grandson who is better than me and I'm trying to teach him the legal game and rules of chess. We have both learned so much so far. It's a journey becoming a good player. but this book is helping us on the pathway. I would recommend
5.0 out of 5 stars Chess is a game for the well skilled mind, this book will advance their technique.
If your child is interested in the fascinating game of intent, get this book NOW!
4.0 out of 5 stars My granddaughter jacked the book!!!
And I haven't come close to winning a chess game in months! What's nice is she is actually excited to beat the Ol'guy and loves reading How to Play Chess for Kids.
5.0 out of 5 stars BEST CHESS BOOK FOR KIDS WHO NEVER PLAYED THAT CAN GET THEM TO A TOURNAMENT LEVEL
I bought this book to review it before giving it to one of my grandchildren. I was so impressed with the teaching style, I purchased another for a 9-10 year old grandchild in Virginia today as a follow on present from the Chess set I made for her. She will need to use the chess set and the book together for a better understanding. I am 71 years old, but did not learn to play Chess until I was in the Navy aboard ships in the early 1970s. I like this book compared to over 10 other chess books I bought for my children and other older grandchildren since it will be easier for them to understand in a fun way. Apparently her school chess club will not accept her until she learns how to play.
5.0 out of 5 stars From kings to castling to checkmate!
This is a great book that will introduce the game of chess to kids! Even grownups can use it to brush up on their game! Checkmate!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great chess book for kids.
We showed our kids how to play chess, but this book has given them even more ideas and better understanding of how to play. Three of our kids have read it and discussed it together. So now we all play chess.
3.0 out of 5 stars About my head but may be right for you
It’s probably a good book but I’m not smart enough to understand it. Had to get my Chess teach to help.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good for any age!
My friend and I are in our 70s and decided to learn chess. I got this book for kids thinking it would be easy to understand. I was right. Chess has been easy to learn, and we are having lots of fun.
Great for kids (and old timers willing to learn something new)
Great chess book for kids. Im 73 and read it first and having been playing over 60 years and I learnt a couple of things. Buy this for your children and grand children then be prepared to be beaten!!
Highly recommended
Excellently written and very informative for both adults and kids
Nice, my kids love it
Simple and good, easy and interesting for kids
Great for adults too!
I highly recommend this book for children and adults learning chess for the first time. It is really well written and extremely easy to understand and follow. I bought it for my 11 year old who expressed an interest in chess and I have thoroughly enjoyed learning along with him, using this book. I always found the idea of learning chess a bit intimidating but this book is wonderful - clear, friendly and colourful! A big thumbs up from me and my 11 year old! Thank you!!
