'The Lost Words' by Robert MacFarlane and Jackie Morris, is a collection of words which the authors eloquently remind us of, so that they don't vanish from our language, hence vanish completely. It is a delightful heap of acrostic poems interspersed with paintings of raw wilderness. It is a book which, adults and children alike, can read through in half an hour and walk away with a fresh pair of eyes and a gladdened heart. The authors rightly call it a 'spell book'. Each poem and painting captures and conveys the spirit of a certain element of the natural world. 'Acorn' and 'Lark' would be my favorites. The book also prompts one to create one's own spell book, of disappearing words in one's own landscape. How many trees can most children name today? Or even adults for that matter? How many birds from their neighborhood? Possibly the words begin vanishing with the trees but I also believe that the converse can happen. Words and names are doorways to relationships. With nature. Maybe our cognizance of its elements will protect it, let it be, or be the beginning of a deeper relationship. Or rather a discovery of one with all life around.The Lost Words communicates this. 'An Explorer's guide to The Lost Words' by Eva John, which is freely downloadable, guides the enthusiastic teacher on how to use this book to engage children, although some of the activities/exercises I found were valuable for me as well. It also sparks off many ideas as to how the outdoors and wilderness can be interestingly integrated into the classroom. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Lost Words - The Lost Spells - The Unwinding: and other dreamings --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/79596207-the-lost-words](https://www.desertcart.in/products/79596207-the-lost-words) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
