A children's fantasy novel set in an intriguing pre-industrial and pre-digital age. Rooted in the spirit of New Romanticism, this book celebrates a return to nature, intuition and ancient magic.

The Oura people once lived in harmony with the Forest, guided by the Oracle - the keeper of ancient wisdom. But now the Forest is dying, its magic fading under unseen, corrosive forces. Poppy and her family are the only Oura people left in the Forest, and Poppy has grown up never knowing that the Oura ancient knowledge existed. Then a near-fatal fall awakens a spark of that ancient power within her. As she heals, she discovers a gift for intuition and a courage she never knew she had. When she finds a lost Oura boy and takes him under her wing, hope blooms - the Oura people may still survive, and the Forest's magic may yet be restored. Set in an endangered forest and filled with danger, mystery, and the timeless pull of nature's wonders, The Lost Art of the Oracle is about finding your voice, trusting your instincts, and protecting the things worth saving. It is, above all, a call to cherish our natural world.
