Really Natural Books: Watch This Space: Designing, Defending, and Sharing Public Spaces

Watch This Space: Designing, Defending and Sharing Public Spaces is a wonderful book that teaches children (and adults) about the importance of shared, public space.

This unique and timely book introduces youth to what public space is, why it is important and how best to use it. It also underscores the need to create, preserve and protect public space. Readers will learn what makes successful public spaces work, the ins and outs of sharing and designing them, the issues surrounding teenagers in public spaces and much more.

Watch This Space answers the question, Why is public space important? It s important because this space belongs to all of us.

From a historical perspective to modern day movements like Critical Mass, this book explores many issues surrounding public spaces. Watch This Space is a great resource for educators and home school parents, and ends with the question of "How would you build it?" and ideas for "Fighting for public space".

Disclosure: I was sent a review copy of this book. No prior assurances were given as to whether the review be positive or negative.
