Seda Aronova, mother of the chess-player Levon Aronyan, has written a
book on her son's childhood and first steps in chess.

The Golden Tulip hotel has hosted a presentation of the book entitled
`Levon Aronyan.'

Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan participated in the presentation.

Talking to journalists, Mrs Aronova said that the book is a present to
her son on the occasion of his 30th birthday anniversary.

`I have been looking for a present, but I have not found one better
than this. Since I had articles about my son in newspapers and
magazines, we decided to use them. I wrote about his first steps. But
next year I will present a book about Grand Master Aronyan next year,'
Mrs Aronova said.

She shared her experiences when her son participates in tournaments.
The World Cup was the most impressive.

Levon Aronyan himself noted that he is most impressed by the
descriptions of his family's experiences in 1990s.

`This book tells you about how you can go through hardships and
succeed. It is also about my mother's efforts to bring me up,' he
said.

The chairman of the Armenian Writers Union, who attended the
presentation, noted that the book is unique due to its hero.

`This book must be translated into a number of languages for people to
know about our grand master even better. I think it will find its
place among the books telling about the world stars,' he said.

Three thousand copies of the book have been released and are not to be
sold. Mrs Aronova said that new editions will be released if the book
finds favor with readers.
