- the Tim Onions/Dave Regis series of books is
really excellent for helping children improve
chess. Tim is a qualified teacher, so pitches
his books at the right level for children. They
are also good for adults who want to know how to
beat their child at chess! There are four books
in the ‘Ten Ways to Succeed’…… series as well as
a puzzle book ‘Chess Puzzles in one move’.

- ‘Winning Chess Tactics for Juniors’ is an
amazing book that would help an average school
player transform into a county level junior. The
average ten year old will find it hard work, but
it is well worth it for the persevering student.

a well worked resource for schools wanting to
start a chess club.
