{"product_id":"the-lost-words","title":"The Lost Words","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen the most recent edition of the Oxford Junior Dictionary — widely used in schools around the world — was published, a sharp-eyed reader soon noticed that around forty common words concerning nature had been dropped. The words were no longer being used enough by children to merit their place in the dictionary. The list of these ‘lost words’ included acorn, adder, bluebell, dandelion, fern, heron, kingfisher, newt, otter, and willow. Among the words taking their place were attachment, blog, broadband, bullet-point, cut-and-paste, and voice-mail…\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn response, Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris set out to make a ‘spell book’ that would conjure back twenty of these lost words, and the beings they name, from acorn to wren. By the magic of word and paint, they sought to summon these words again into the voices, stories, and dreams of children and adults alike, and to celebrate the wonder and importance of everyday nature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hamish Hamilton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54789215945043,"sku":null,"price":16.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/3363\/7715\/files\/c7a62da9c457cef427ade2819535ab58.jpg?v=1788069710","url":"https:\/\/oakandsprout.co.uk\/products\/the-lost-words","provider":"Oak \u0026 Sprout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
