The only sound heard in the hushed auditorium packed with 400 proud parents was his shoes hitting the concrete aisle. The child in charge of the record player reached me as I sat in the last seat in the back row. "Mr.Rose, " he said in a quiet voice, "I forgot the records." "Get them - hurry up!" I said through clenched teeth and a pathetic smile. It took about two minutes as he rushed to the room, got the records, returned, and finally began the music for the dance. During the entire process the children, two sets of six on the stage in circles and four sets of children in front of the stage stood straight without moving or talking. The class went on to perform, dances, songs, and skits for one and a half hours. Not once did I do or say anything after giving him the room key. I sat in the back as my very competent and independent sixth graders made me so proud that I kept fighting tears. More of what they did that day is in the book. And, this is just one of the many anecdotes of the children, parents, teachers, and supervisors who deeply TOUCHED MY LIFE during the first twelve years of my 42 year career.

Mit viel Einsatz und Mühe haben die beiden Autoren die immer wieder gestellte Frage "Warum überhaupt Outdoor-Sex?" mit zwei zwinkernden Augen zu beantworten versucht. Denn obwohl es zugegebenermaßen mehr Spaß machen kann, selbst herumzuexperimentieren, gibt es doch einen Rucksack voll guter Gründe, die für einen Ratgeber wie diesen sprechen. Die Autoren jedenfalls haben viel Spaß bei der Recherche zu diesem Buch für fast alle Liebeslagen im Outdoor gehabt und geben ihre Erfahrungen humorvoll weiter. Trotzdem ist der kleine Hinweis wohl angebracht: Der Bundesminister für draußen warnt - Sex ist gut für die Gesundheit.
