About This Book
On a summer day in Brooklyn, kids pour out of their apartments to play in the streets and parks — double dutch, freeze tag, water hydrants. Jacqueline Woodson's lyrical text captures the freedom of unstructured outdoor play.
Why This Age
The community, independence, and nostalgia themes suit 5-6 year olds beginning to play more independently.
