“Touching Grass tickles funny bones and warms hearts. The tension builds delightfully—from urban kid woes to girl crush to bathroom disaster to an enraged beaver chase—until the story comes full circle in a most satisfying manner. Kristy Jackson’s candid and timely tale celebrates the transformative power of a land-based learning camp in Saskatchewan. It is an absolute joy to read.”
