Author Susan Elderkin has seen her kids express wonder and glee at discovering insects and flowers, melt down in tearful defiance in the middle of a trail, and triumphantly reach a summit and view. In short, sheâs a regular mom who wants to encourage other parents to get their regular kids out into nature too.
