In a world in which we're never far from our phones or tablets, computers or consoles, we can often be blind to the joy that can be found in the great outdoors.

We're building worlds in Minecraft when we could be building a raft; we're watching the latest Netflix show when we could be gazing at the stars; we're idly scrolling on social media when we could be strolling through woodlands; we're internet shopping when we could be panning for gold.

Our phones may be smarter, but our experiences have shrunk down to the size of the screens in front of our eyes.

The Wild Book is here to re-acquaint us with the wonders that await in the outside world. Beautifully produced, full of fun, easy-to-do games and activities - including how to make sloe gin, climb trees, build a fire, identify different cloud formations and make a shelter - this is the ultimate book to unleash your inner child.
