This influential work about the staggering divide between children and the outdoors, child advocacy expert Richard Louv directly links the lack of nature in the lives of today’s wired generation—he calls it nature deficit disorder—to some of the most disturbing childhood trends, such as the rise in obesity, attention disorders, and depression. In this book study and eCourse, participants will reflect on the impact of our separation from nature as a society and how we can begin to reverse this trend with young children.
