The backyard has long been a space associated with recreation and relaxation, a private patch of earth to escape to, and a springboard for the imagination. With her signature style and personal experience as a mother, gardener, and author, Amanda Thomsen encourages kids to create kingdoms of their own making, right in their own backyards. With whimsical projects for every season and any setting, forest to pavement, fun-seeking kids and their families will rediscover the yard as a place for inspired play, using repurposed materials and existing features of outdoor spaces.
