FOREST SCHOOL

Forest School for Grown Ups: Explore the Wisdom of the Woods by Richard Irvine is a gorgeous and comprehensive guide to all things outdoors for anyone who loves being in and interacting with nature. Readers will learn how to make a rope swing, go forest bathing and foraging for food, read flowers, build a campfire, and make a forest potion. From practical tips and how-tos to forest folklore, there’s something for everyone.

Forest schools for kids originated in Scandinavia as outdoor play-based learning groups, and in 2016 The Forest School Foundation was established in the USA. But why should kids have all the fun? Connecting with green spaces, trees, and plants can lift our spirits, lower our stress levels, and relax our brains – in short, playing outside is good for adults, too. Exquisite lino cut art and illustrations run throughout, along with step-by-step instructions, diagrams, and more.

Perfect for:

• Anyone who loves the outdoors, camping, trees, and nature
• Father’s Day, birthday, and holiday gift-givers
