Kindle Chess Puzzles for Beginners (Including Kids)

Nice addictive eBook for the kids that have just learned the basic moves during lockdown.

Have you recently learned to play Chess and are still “Chess Blind”?

You have learned to play chess recently. You know what each piece does, but when you look at the board, it’s just a jumble of pieces. This is a curable form of dyslexia or should it be dis-chessia!

Getting better at playing chess is like learning to read. The pieces are the letters and groups of pieces form patterns (words) that are combined to give the current position. You then read the current position like a sentence. By solving these one move puzzles, you will see these patterns over and over again in imaginative combinations until it becomes natural.

The author has designed this book to be more than a random collection of puzzles. Instead, it is a series of quick lessons to explain the theme of each set of puzzles. Then each set of puzzles starts with a stripped back position so that the pattern stands out. Then as the puzzles for that topic progresses, the board has more pieces added and more subtle versions of the pattern introduced.
