Forest School for All

Edited by Sara Knight (Sage, 21.99, ISBN 978087020727)

A range of case studies examines different forest school practices for children, young people and adults. There is plenty for early years practitioners to draw on, with the first section of the book exploring how settings in both urban and rural locations have used forest schools to enrich children's understanding of their environment, and build social skills and self-esteem. The wide-ranging case studies also demonstrate how forest schools can address issues such as obesity, public health and social wellbeing.
