The Charm and the Flight Postcards

“Once upon a time, words began to vanish from the language of children. They disappeared so quietly that at first almost no one noticed – fading away like water on stone. The words were those that children used to name the natural world around them: acorn, adder, bluebell, bramble, conker – gone! Fern, heather, kingfisher, otter, raven, willow, wren…all of them gone! The words were being lost…” A collaboration between Jackie Morris and Robert Macfarlane, The Lost Words is a very special illustrated collection of spell-poems to re-wild the language of children. All over the country, there are words disappearing from children's lives.

Written and illustrated by Jackie Morris. This book imagines and describes many different varieties of dragons, showing them in words and stunning illustrations.

Jackie explores the wonderous Pembrokeshire landscape in the company of her feline friends.
