Apparently they were no longer being used enough by children to merit their place in the dictionary. The list of these “lost words” included \u003ci\u003eacorn\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eadder\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ebluebell\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003edandelion\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003efern\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eheron\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ekingfisher\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003enewt\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eotter\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003ewillow\u003c\/i\u003e. Among the words taking their place were \u003ci\u003eattachment\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eblog\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ebroadband\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ebullet-point\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ecut-and-paste\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003evoice-mail\u003c\/i\u003e. The news of these substitutions — the outdoor and natural being displaced by the indoor and virtual — became seen by many as a powerful sign of the growing gulf between childhood and the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTen years later, Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris set out to make a “spell book” that will conjure back twenty of these lost words, and the beings they name, from \u003ci\u003eacorn\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003ewren\u003c\/i\u003e. 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. \u003ci\u003eThe Lost Words\u003c\/i\u003e is that book — a work that has already cast its extraordinary spell on hundreds of thousands of people and begun a grass-roots movement to re-wild childhood across Britain, Europe, and North America.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-03-23T13:02:31-04:00","created_at":"2022-03-23T09:16:34-04:00","vendor":"House of Anansi Press Inc","type":"","tags":["Adult Audiobooks","Adult Award Winning","Adult Bestseller","Adult Course Adoption","Adult Environmentalism","Adult Nonfiction","Adult Starred Reviews","Anansi International","By (author) Macfarlane Robert","Illustrated by Morris Jackie","pub date: 2018-10-02"],"price":2499,"price_min":2499,"price_max":4000,"available":true,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":40205697155131,"title":"hardcover","option1":"hardcover","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781487005382","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"The Lost Words -

Being aware of the impact of the systems within which we operate can empower us with an enriched understanding of the work that we do and, hopefully, help us advocate for change. There is a fine line between being aware of issues and being crushed by the weight of the systemic problems we face. Aim for the former to stay in a headspace of action and empowerment, and remember, we can’t single-handedly save the world in one profound act. What we \u003cem\u003ecan\u003c\/em\u003e do is implement some of the actions outlined in this book, and develop some of our own, to effect incremental change toward a more equitable world.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHelp your Audience Live (Mentally) Healthily\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003eOver the years there have been all sorts of sketchy ways the creative industries have been complicit in manufacturing needs. The practice of manipulating audience behaviour has become increasingly stealthy through the use of things like dark patterns (manipulative interface designs that trick users into doing things they may not have wanted to do), the repetitive hyper-targeting and re-targeting of ads and past-viewed products, and addictive experiences in digital product design. Aiming to identify and avoid these modes of practice is a key step toward an ethical practice.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003eI would argue that we can’t be conscious creatives if we’re exploiting self-esteem to sell a product, infusing fat-phobia into our marketing messages, advertising nutritionally void foods to kids, producing experiences that capitalize on a dopamine\/reward response, selling high fashion using violent, misogynistic imagery, or promoting mindless consumption. These ethical pitfalls aren’t always simple to avoid, however mindful awareness, positive intentions, and advocating for the promotion of healthy behaviours in our audiences are steps in the right direction.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMake it Analogue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003eWhen creating with objectives toward developing strong and connected communities, consider that reliance on or defaulting to a technology-based solution might not serve our cause well. Social Innovation leader Ezio Manzini believes that a community’s reliance on digital connectivity can actually weaken a once-solid social fabric. This replacement of authentic, real-world connections with connections based in superficial, digital realms can, arguably, compromise a community’s resilience. If technology is necessary in your creative work, ensure it plays a supporting role and never replaces face-to-face human connection.\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcknowledge The Privilege of Ethical Practice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003e\u003cbr \/\u003eLet’s promise to stop judging the people around on us whose choices we don’t perceive to be ethical. Having the ability to make socially and environmentally conscious decisions can be steeped in a privilege not universally shared. For example: ethically made materials, resources, food, and fashion often come at a higher price point and are therefore inaccessible to many people. To have the choice to work for an ethical employer often demands earning a college education, which requires financial means and intellectual aptitude. Advocating for change can require long hours, emotional labour, mental fortitude, and a requirement for presence in collective action not always available to those whose safety, mental health, or physical health may be compromised. To be supportive allies in the pursuit of a better world, we must start with an understanding of the complex systems that can impact our abilities to act. When we withdraw judgment from other people’s choices, we can remember to do the same for ourselves. Usually we are doing the best we can with the awareness and the resources we have at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e","OtherText_Previous_review_q_0":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eREVIEW COPIES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBooklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","OtherText_Review_0":"\u003cp\u003e“Kelly Small’s experience as a former creative director provides valuable insight … Small’s thorough breakdown of ethical concerns in the workplace can benefit anyone wanting to grow as an ally in a nation rife with issues of disparity.” — \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eCascade\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","OtherText_Review_0_Src":"Cascade","OtherText_Review_1":"\u003cp\u003e“What Kelly Small brings to the table is a healthy dose of both inspiration and practicality … Kelly Small’s personal story is an inspiration in itself, shared throughout the book with candour and courage.
