We looked at this in chapter 2. But here is something special we haven’t talked about yet. Usually it’s best to promote the pawn to a queen, because the queen is the most powerful piece. But sometimes a smaller piece is better for the position. This is called underpromotion. Look at the diagram for an example. Those are powerful pawns! You should promote to a knight here to make an immediate checkmate—the knight would be in the perfect position to attack the king. If you were to promote to a queen, you’d actually get a stalemate!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Callisto Kids","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47372485853369,"sku":"1641526920","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/7871\/0713\/files\/81CLkBntMzL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1780696704","url":"https:\/\/coziecorners-3.myshopify.com\/products\/how-to-play-chess-for-kids-simple-strategies-to-win-by-jessica-e-martin","provider":"BestBuyBooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
