What is The Lost Spells about?
A collection of spell-like poems celebrating the natural world, The Lost Spells brings foxes, birch trees, badgers, jackdaws and other familiar creatures vividly to life. Robert Macfarlane’s playful, musical language invites readers to notice the wild places around them, while Jackie Morris’s delicate watercolour paintings fill each page with wonder. Designed to be read aloud and shared, these poems encourage curiosity, care and a deeper connection with the plants and animals that live alongside us.
