It looks to me like a very workable pose, slightly off-center with movement back into the open space and out toward the viewer. You'll have to do the right things in terms of foreshortening the child's right forearm and left upper leg. I assume you'll be working in color (I'm somewhat curious as to why the photo isn't in color), so if you use the outdoor setting, you'll want to make sure that the grass doesn't wind up a "too pretty" green that competes with the subject. It's essentially background.

Looks like fun.

Cheers
