Having completed your journey through this book with the help of one of chess's all-time greats you will be ready for your first chess battle - against Mum or Dad, against a friend or a computer, in the Internet or in a competition. This book will enable your child to master the rules of the game in a relaxed manner, and will help him or her to conquer new heights not only in chess but in life too. This is because chess develops patience, logical thinking and memory, and teaches how to use time rationally.
