Resumen del Editor

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Lost Words by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris, read by Edith Bowman, Guy Garvey, Cerys Matthews and Benjamin Zephaniah.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

WINNER OF THE BEAUTIFUL BOOK AWARD

BRITISH BOOK AWARDS CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE YEAR 2018

The book that has taken root in schools across Britain, inspired creative thinkers, young and old, and restored the vanishing poetry of nature.

All over the country, there are words disappearing from children's lives. These are the words of the natural world; Dandelion, Otter, Bramble and Acorn, all gone. A wild landscape of imagination and play is rapidly fading from our children's minds.

The Lost Words stands against the disappearance of wild childhood. It is a joyful celebration - in art and word - of nearby nature and its wonders. With acrostic spell-poems by award-winning writer Robert Macfarlane and illustrations by Jackie Morris, this enchanting book evokes the irreplaceable magic of language and nature for all ages.

Across a rich and vivid natural soundscape, Edith Bowman, Guy Garvey, Cerys Matthews and Benjamin Zephaniah, iconic voices of modern Britain, bring the magic of nature and language to listeners. Through captivating readings, wonderful natural recordings and more, the audio edition of The Lost Words is a stunning celebration of the nature and the power of language.

Includes listening notes by Chris Watson, wildlife and natural phenomena recordist, as a downloadable PDF.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"My top book of the year...It is one of those children's books for ages up to 99 years. The lost words are those my generation and earlier ones used every day and which are fast disappearing, and Macfarlane's aim is to resurrect the everyday glories of our language. May he succeed." (Susan Hill)

"Rapturously received celebration of nature." (The New Statesman)

A wonderful companion to the book

The giant hardcover picture book is an experience of its own. If you haven’t got your hands on it, do as it is a separate experience from the audiobook. Its immersive pictures tell its own story that won’t be forgotten.

The loss of the pictures ought to make this audiobook a sorry excuse. Ingeniously, the creators include soundscapes that perfectly compliment the spell poems. I was entranced, searching for details that I later learned the accompanying PDF provides. Since the book’s purpose is to help us see what is hidden in nature, this worked perfectly. And the narrators were wonderful.

It’s expensive for a 45 minute program, hence my 4 stars. But I’m glad I enjoyed it and do recommend it.
