The Lost Words

Through the magic of word and paint, this book revives 20 words that had been cut out of the last edition of the Oxford Junior Dictionary. Words about the outdoors and nature had been replaced by words about the indoors and technical. Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris created this "spell book" to bring to life lost words from acorn to wren and to celebrate the wonder and importance of everyday nature. Book measures 10 3/4 x 14 3/4 inches.
