In this timely and personal book, celebrated nature writer Patrick Barkham draws on his own experience as a parent and a forest school volunteer to explore the relationship between children and nature. Unfolding over the course of a year of snowsuits, muddy wellies, and sunhats, it is both an intimate story of children finding their place in natural world, and a celebration of the delight we can all find in even modest patches of green.
