Run Wild

David Covell, illustrated by David Covell

A girl runs past a boy who is focused on a digital device and calls attention to the blue sky. Curious, he follows her outdoors, leaving his phone and shoes behind. Their movement takes him into sunshine, damp grass, and warm sand. The book contrasts time spent with a screen and an immediate experience of the natural world, following the boy as he responds to the girl’s invitation to go outside.
