Lucy Bowman grew up in a village in Cheshire, where she spent her time having adventures outdoors or reading about them in books. She completed a degree in American Studies and joined Usborne to write books on all kinds of topics, from Antarctica to space to games and puzzles.
Our 10-year-old has been enjoying this book over the last year. He's done the various exercises on it and learned a lot. He played with his dad last night and brought up two rules not even Dad was aware of. I have zero interest in chess, but if you do, I think this is a fun book to learn and practice chess strategies.
Wish there were more books like this - my 6 year old son loved way it is written and exercises with stickers. Got him interested in “The game of Kings”.
