Advanced players will delight in the many devious middlegame tricks - some classified here for the first time - which can catch out even grandmasters. Chess Tactics for Kids makes improving easy and fun, and is full of helpful explanations on how to approach chess games with confidence - and success. Review: Five Stars - Good book indeed. Need to spend more time reading, learning from it :-) Review: Excellent book to learn some nifty tricks - Murray Chandler again proves his ability to convey great ideas in small bites! Like his other book (the famous 'How to beat your dad...'), this book gives a fifty great ideas, which you could try and remember some while playing. Best part is that how often you can read this - you don't have to read it cover to cover each time, or even sequentially. You just open it wherever it opens, and read that particular tactic! (Of course, I recommend you try and read it front-to-back, sequentially, at least once - and mark the pages that really resonate with you). I have three Gambit books now, and I think they have made this their style : each concept is given only two pages, the left and the right. First it is introduced with some text and two diagrams, and then the implementation is shown on the right page - in exactly four diagrams that could be from four different games or less. Once you get used to it, it's a great format! And like their other books, I have the same complaint here too : it would have been great if of the game referenced had been named exactly (date and players). Some of these positions seem so obvious or simplistic that you start wondering how great masters and grandmasters ended up in that situation! But still - get the book. It's better than playing with your smartphone to pass the time! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #224,405 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,011 in Crafts & Hobbies (Books) #1,306 in Children's Crafts, Hobbies & Practical Interests (Books) #1,346 in Children's Books on Games | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 326 Reviews | ## Images ![Chess Tactics for Kids (Chess for Schools) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ViiqLSjZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by J***N on 24 July 2016* Good book indeed.

He loves it, and so do I. I'm a pretty decent club standard player with an extensive chess library, but I still find this entertaining to dip into every now and again. All of the examples are taken from real games, some at the very highest level. They are clearly diagrammed, the typeface is clear and easy to read (important with books for children), and new ideas are introduced with a diagram every move or two. Highly recommended. ## Frequently Bought Together - Chess Tactics for Kids - How to Beat Your Dad at Chess (Chess for Kids) - Chess Openings for Kids --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/109299817-chess-tactics-for-kids-chess-for-schools](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/109299817-chess-tactics-for-kids-chess-for-schools) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
