Let’s get this inspirational book into our Cornish schools - to help develop a sense of awe and wonder to connect our children with Nature.

This is such a beautiful book, and we live in such beautiful regions: how sad would it be if we could not name the birds and animals and plants we see around us?

I read The Lost Words to my 6 yr old friend. She was excited by the magical words and was inspired to write me a poem. I’d like every child to share this joy.
