WILD CHILD
By Patrick Barkham
Synopsis
From climbing trees to making dens, many of the activities we associate with a happy childhood take place outdoors. And yet, the reality for many contemporary children is very different. Studies tell us that we are raising a generation who are so alienated from nature that they can't identify the commonest birds or plants, they don't know where their food comes from, they are shuttled between home and school and spend very little time in green spaces. In this book, writer Patrick Barkham draws on his own experience as a parent and a forest school volunteer to explore the relationship between children and nature.
