General Note:

From title page verso -- "A note about the typeface: After struggling with his own dyslexia, the author wanted everyone to enjoy it: parents, children who read, children learning to rad and children struggling to read. The book designer launched into full research mode to find a dyslexia-friendly font. Several were found, but only one had the personality necessary for our bookworm. Lexie Readable, by K-Type, is designed with accessibility and legibility in mind. For example, it features non-symmetrical b and d, and the handwritten forms of a and g may help dyslexic readers."
