Customer Reviews

A review from the Board Games Editor at BellaOnline.com

Games Around the World: Chess is a charming and well-written little book, a must-have for any school or library bookshelf, and a great addition to the home book collection. It explains chess in an incredibly simple and straightforward way. It does not go into heavy strategy tips at all, so anyone who already plays chess may find it overly basic, but for a child who thinks they'd like to learn the game, this book is a wonderful start!
