The Lost Spells
Autor Robert MacFarlane, Jackie Morrisen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 sep 2020 – vârsta de la 5 ani
Kindred in spirit toThe Lost Wordsbut fresh in its form,The Lost Spellsis a pocket-sized treasure that introduces a beautiful new set of natural spell-poems and artwork by beloved creative duo Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris.
As inThe Lost Words, these "spells" take their subjects from relatively commonplace, and yet underappreciated, animals, birds, trees and flowers -- from Barn Owl to Red Fox, Grey Seal to Silver Birch, Jay to Jackdaw. But they break out of the triptych format ofThe Lost Words, finding new shapes, new spaces and new voices with which to conjure.
Written to be read aloud, painted in brushstrokes that call to the forest, field, riverbank and also to the heart,The Lost Spellssummons back what is often lost from sight and care, and inspires protection and action on behalf of the natural world. Above all, it celebrates a sense of wonder, bearing witness to nature's power to amaze, console and bring joy.
Praise forThe Lost Words:

'Breathtaking, magical... Jackie Morris has created something that you could spend all day looking at'New Statesman
'Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris have made a thing of astonishing beauty'Observer
