Die Veröffentlichungen des jungen schwedischen Verlages Quality Chess waren bisher durchweg sehr überzeugend, und so ist es sehr erfreulich, dass nun auch zwei deutsche Autoren ihre neuen Bücher in diesem Verlag herausbringen konnten. Wir beginnen mit "Chess for Kids and Parents" von Heinz Brunthaler.
Wie der Name schon andeutet wendet sich dieses Übungsbuch gleichermaßen an Kinder, die in die bunte Welt des Schachspiels eintauchen wollen, als auch an deren Eltern, die ihr Kind dabei unterstützen wollen, aber vielleicht selbst noch keine Erfahrung mit dem königlichen Spiel haben.
Einzige Voraussetzung des Buches ist die Beherrschung der Schachregeln, die im Anhang zur Sicherheit aber auch noch einmal kurz zusam-mengefasst werden.
Nach einleitenden Tipps zur Arbeit mit dem Buch und zur allgemeinen Gestaltung des Schachtrainings folgt das Unterrichtsmaterial, das zahlreiche Themen, Übungsbeispiele und nützliche Hinweise enthält.
Mit diesem Buch kann eine sehr gute Grundlage für eine weitere Beschäftigung mit dem Schachspiel geschaffen werden.
Grundlegende Englischkenntnisse sollten zur Bewältigung des Buches ausreichen.
