an article posted at aiga's blog about the significance of a font system for young readers. a big problem for early readers is the identification of letters. in addition to being dissimilar across the upper and lowercases, some of the letters mirror each other. the fact that a single letter can be mistaken for another letter depending upon the font is a serious problem that will continue to compromise literacy development among english-speaking early readers. something to consider being a designer as well as a parent.
