Chess Books

Mini-Pocket Chess Books!

Each mini book is a set of concise instructions on each chess topic.  They are designed to fit elegantly and perfectly in your pocket.

Designed for kids! (adults love them too!)

Kids LOVE these books and keep asking me for more!

So I decided to double the fun and make it a family crafting/origami project so you can download, print, fold and voila!

Finally! A chess book designed for kids!

How to Fold your Book

After you purchase your chess book, watch this short video on how to fold it.  There are only 4 simple folds and 1 cut and it’s done!  Fits in your pockets.  Collect them all!

Why does it cost so much?

Why does it cost $4 if I’m printing it out and doing all the work myself??

1. 1. I’m not making bank on these – ALL PROCEEDS go towards Chess Scholarships for kids.
      So let the love flow!
   2. It took me (Peter van Gorder, a fellow Chess Instructor) hours, no…  days to:
      • figure out what precise and valuable information could be crammed onto a tiny 2-sided sheet piece of paper,
      • figure out how to turn it into a folded book,
      • test the orientation of all images,
      • print-fold-test them,
      • make the “How to fold them” video,
      • load them and all instructions into this virtual store – just for you, dear chess enthusiast.
