WoodsteinA Kirkus Best YA Book of 2024One of Maria Popovas Marginalian Favorites of 2024Selected for the USBBY Outstanding International Book List, 2025 The park beckons us to leave our daily routines behind and enter its zone of endless possibility. In the park, the usual rules dont apply. In the park, what matters most is the moment, and losing track of time to the timelessness of imagination, invention, observation, and chance. In the park, there are risks, of course, but also the deepest rewards, to be found in the freedom experienced through play that is both embodied and participatory. It is not the lone I, but the we that goes to the park, where chance encounters might suddenly become moments of deep connectionhowever fleetingwith others, nature, and ourselves. Originally published in Sweden, this first Englishlanguage edition printed in Italy on thick cream paper offers an immersive experience of transformation, longing, and transcendence to readers of all ages, while reminding adult readers in particular of the everyday miracle contained in encountering another consciousness.
