Rodney is the kind of kid who simply cannot sit still. Even when he is sitting at his desk inside his classroom, his mind is wandering outdoors. Outside is where Rodney always wants to be. He knows there is a small, triangle shaped park between his school and his house, but it just has yellow grass and two boring benches where grown ups sit around all day. Plus, his momma specifically told him to stay far away from that place. Rodney dreams of experiencing a real park. When his class finally goes on a field trip to a massive, beautiful outdoor space, Rodney is absolutely thrilled. He suddenly has plenty of room to run, climb massive trees, shout at the top of his lungs, and just be his true self. This exciting day out in nature is a transformative experience that will change how Rodney sees the world forever.
