Learn how to play chessâ€”the worldâ€™s most popular board game!

Chess is easy to learn, and anyone can play it. Jessica E Prescott teaches you how you can get good at itâ€”and start winning. Improve your skills through 35 fun activitiesâ€”this isnâ€™t just a textbook about the rules of the game! Why not have a game of Pawn Football (pawns line up at their starting rank and race to the other side), or do the Queen Dance (make a checkmate using only a queen and king)? Try Scholarâ€™s Mateâ€”the four-move checkmate every beginner needs to knowâ€”and when youâ€™re really good, play Bughouse, a crazy four-person game with two chess sets. All the activities have clear, colorful artworks so you can see exactly where pieces should be on the chessboard. There are also helpful hints and tips throughout, and if youâ€™ve ever forgotten how a piece moves or need to brush up on a rule, look at the Starting Out section for a reminder.
