Chess Camp: Elementary Endgames, Vol 4 Read Free Books and Download eBooks
Chess Camp is a new training system for beginning chessplayers, and for the parents and coaches who teach them. Starting with simple problems to illustrate key concepts, and then progressing to more complex positions, the student will learn by doing, methodically integrating new information with previous knowledge while building effective thinking habits at the board.In this fourth volume, Elementary Endgames, the student will: 1) learn how to deliver fundamental checkmates such as a king and a rook against a lone king; 2) discover how to avoid stalemating the opposing king, and how to induce stalemate when threatened with checkmate; and 3) develop not only an understanding of concepts such as passed pawns and king opposition, but also a sense of confidence in the final phase of the game.

I've still working on some of these checkmates - - - If for nothing else but review. But for kids...absolutely great.
After I reviewed this book, I gave it to a 9-year-old boy whose dad was bringing him to the chess club. I understand that they are using it to learn the game.
