Chess Puzzles for Kids - Murray Chandler

Excellent puzzzle book for all of us!

This is the excellent Murray Chandler at his very best. He teaches tactics superbly and the puzzles are full of "mental vitamins" , to borrow an expression from my favourite eccentric philosopher. The only possible criticism (?) has to be that a few of the positions are really challenging even to very strong players - but maybe that is as it should be. Some of the kids we coach are capable of great things. (Make it fun but ...."per ardua ad astra....") Think of young Kasparov worrying his coach by asking for more and more chess puzzles. Every chess club library should have this book.
