This delightful book records favorite childhood games and recalls forgotten rhymes. With more children suffering from obesity, Susan Brewer looks at the social games we used to play from skipping to chase games that used up our energy during recess.

A charming book, full of anecdotes and nostalgia for how we remember our favorite place at school—the playground.
