{"product_id":"chess-rumble","title":"Chess Rumble","description":"A story in free verse about a troubled boy who learns to use his mind instead of his fists through the guidance of an unconventional mentor and the game of chess.\nThree moves\nis all it takes\nto change the outcome\nof the game.\nIn Marcus's world, battles are fought everyday-on the street, at home, and in school. Angered by his sister's death and his father's absence, and pushed to the brink by a bullying classmate, Marcus fights back with his fists.\nOne punch away from being kicked out of school and his home, Marcus encounters CM, an unlikely chess master who challenges him to fight his battles on the chess board. Guarded and distrusting, Marcus must endure more hard lessons before he can accept CM's help to regain control of his life.\nInspired by inner-city school chess enrichment programs, Chess Rumble explores the ways this strategic game empowers young people with the skills they need to anticipate and calculate their moves through life.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1620141892\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1620141892.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:G.
