Words from the Author

Michael "Sunni" Robinson:

   “I was in 3rd grade when I started playing Chess. I remember I was in school when I saw my friend walking the opposite way of the exit, so I asked him where he was going and he said to chess practice. At the time I thought chess was just a game, like Monopoly or something. I was really intrigued by the game and how the pieces moved and the strategy it takes to win. I enjoyed the tournaments, playing with my friends and my coach. Now that I am 13 I can say chess has really helped me with my focus. I am also able to apply chess strategies to different areas of my life, for example, when I play football, or when Im taking a test at school and it requires me to think critically.

I hope you enjoy this guide and I hope it helps you start to love chess the way that I do!”
