Chess for Children: How to Play the World's Most Popular Board Game
Description
With this charming book, children will delight in learning the basic moves of
chess – the most popular and challenging strategy game of all. All the rules
of chess are clearly explained, step by step, assuming no prior knowledge. The
lessons are reinforced by the inventive tales that George is told by his pet
alligator Kirsty, self-proclaimed Grand Alligator of chess. Chess is
recognized in many countries as a useful tool for developing creative thinking
in children. Although chess can be regarded as a rather complex and mysterious
game, the rules themselves are straightforward. It doesn’t take long to learn
how the pieces move, and even children as young as five can enjoy exciting
games. They will also thoroughly enjoy outwitting friends and relatives!
