The 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, school and the shops and spend very little time in green spaces - let alone roaming free.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfolding over the course of a year of snowsuits, muddy wellies, and sunhats, Wild Child 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winstones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39638705209497,"sku":"9781783781935","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/products\/9781783781935.jpg?v=1617110288","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.pro\/products\/9781783781935","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
