This book is a must read for parents and kids eager to explore the world of chess. It's the ultimate guide, especially if you're starting. Anyone can learn chess, but becoming good at it? That journey needs time, passion, and some serious training. Parents, listen up: introducing your kids to chess is like handing them a secret weapon for life.

In 2020, Joshua wrapped up his studies at Webster University, all thanks to a full chess scholarship. The coolest part? Because chess is a universal language, you get to globe-trot and make friends, even if you don't speak the same language.

Despite chess gaining popularity and some schools adding it to their lessons, chess parents are shouting for it to be in every school. This book spills the beans on what being a chess player is like, what it takes to get good, and the highs and lows in the chess community.

But wait, there's more! This book is also your go-to guide for life skills. It's a perfect summer read for anyone aged six and up. So whether you're a young chess enthusiast or a parent, snag a copy--it's a fun ride!
