You've been waiting for these books. Consumable copywork books that focus on building character and imparting solid values while utilizing your choice of three different handwriting methods. Quotes from historical persons, the Bible, as well as definition sentences (i.e. diligence) from Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary, are grouped by character quality (such as determination, contentment, wisdom, etc. - 17 per book) with appropriately spaced lines/spaces for copying. New to the series in 2019 are the intermediate and advanced printing workbooks (for grades 3-7). Intermediate print lines are .5 inch with a dotted midline. Advanced print lines are 1 cm wide with a dotted half line. 106 pgs, quality spiral-bound. Now available in three different handwriting styles: D'Nealian, Italic, and Zaner-Bloser. Previously published only as Character copybooks in Italics. ~ Janice
While the content of these books is a great idea the layout is terrible The pages are set up with a line of D'Nealian print and then directly underneath a blank line for practice The two lines are different sizes! So a beginning writer is required to expand the size of her letters to fit the line IF she is able to make this compensation she is no longer copying directly below the sample text - her line is longer It seems to me that this is a terrible and unnecessary frustration for a beginnerThe mid-line that is printed for the practice line is completely different from the sample line It consists of very dark bulky squares The thick mid-line makes it almost impossible to see if the "t" is crossed or notFinally the practice lines leave no space to write letters that form below the baseline The beginning writer must "squeeze" the tail of "p" "q" or "y" between her current baseline and the top of the next sample lineThese books might be fine to learn about some different character qualities but until these major deficiencies are corrected they are completely unacceptable as a handwriting practice book
