The authors did a great job of describing both the history and the rules of many playground and neighborhood games. I used their work as a jumping off place for an insert into a summer concert brochure for our town's concerts on the lawn-I hope it will spark conversation among the attendees.....They certainly covered many, many games, but made my husband and I think of many more.

Lots of memories form games I used to play years ago - great fun !

I loved the book but my 7 year old was less than interested.
