Want to improve your handwriting as an adult? Then this workbook may be just what you are looking for. At first glance you may have received the impression that this book is for kids. Wrong! Whilst older kids, teenagers and college students could definitely improve their handwriting by using this book, they are not the intended audience.
Maybe you are wondering why you should bother investing time in your handwriting when most of the time you type and text? Handwriting it an important skill and the quality of yours says a lot about you. There are still times when a beautifully written note means so much more than a typed message.
Following the introduction the author goes on to tackle the "Five Common Handwriting Problems". Then it's time for "Handwriting Basics". There is PLENTY of space to practice the lessons/letters. The writing is 'real' size i.e not oversized like you see in children's writing books. The examples of letters for any given page are large and bold - great to see how exactly each one should be formed. Both italic and cursive are taught with the final chapter tackling calligraphy.
Excellent and thorough. I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher. Thanks, Liz
