Not sure if this is the right fit?

Consider Winning Chess Exercises for Kids by Jeff Coakley. Recommended by 1 sources.

Bright, cartoon-strewn pages deliver short puzzles and bite-sized explanations aimed at young beginners, so the book feels more like play than formal instruction. What works best is the sheer number of progressive exercises that build pattern recognition and basic tactics through repetition and visual cues. Its main limitation is a light touch on deeper strategic explanation and annotated games, which makes it too simple for older or advancing juniors. Parents and coaches will often want supplemental, more structured material.
