Book Synopsis The Batsford Book of Chess for Children by : Sabrina Chevannes
Download or read book The Batsford Book of Chess for Children written by Sabrina Chevannes and published by Batsford Books. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chess is experiencing a new wave of popularity in schools, and it's educational too. Organisations like Chess in Schools are promoting it as the perfect way to develop analytical thinking skills, foster the competitive instinct – and provide a lot of fun along the way. This cute, character-based book, aimed at children aged 7 and up, is a complete guide to chess for those starting out in the game. In straightforward, animated language, Jess and Jamie – two rough-and-tumble kids who are obsessed with chess – explain everything you need to know, from first sitting down at the board to sneaky tricks to help you beat your opponents. The book explains who the pieces are and how they move (and that we're talking about pawns, not prawns), how to reach checkmate (or, in Jess's words, 'how to kill the king'), and the concept of the opening, middlegame and endgame. It also introduces the idea of chess etiquette - and explains why: sometimes no one wins and a game ends in stalemate. Friendlier and more fun than the average children's chess book, The Batsford Book of Chess for Children should become an essential addition to any child's bookshelf.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s the classic revised and reillustrated! With more than 1 million copies sold, The Kids’ Book of Chessis the bestselling introduction for kids to the game that’s inspired passion and challenge for over 900 years—and, thanks to Netflix’s monster hit, The Queen’s Gambit,is again surging in popularity. The New Yorker said it best: “Harvey Kidder explains the game with a clarity that is almost absolute.” By grounding the fundamentals of how chess works in the game’s origins—the medieval battlefield—Kidder captures chess’s energy and excitement while offering instruction that is direct and concrete. Pawns, modeled after common foot soldiers, advance step by step. The Knight’s leaping “L”-shaped move recalls the warrior on horseback. Powerful Bishops line up alongside Queen and King, just like the Middle Ages alliance of Church and State. Illustrations bring all this pomp and pageantry to life while the text covers the beginning, middle, and end game, along with winning strategies for offense and defense—how to castle, how to protect pieces, how to control the center of the board, and more. With its new art throughout, full chess set of sturdy punch-out cardboard pieces, and cardboard chessboard, TheKids’ Book of Chessand Starter Chess Set has everything a child needs to step away from the screens and start playing the greatest analog game ever created.
