An Advocate for Italic

More and more Kitty Burns Florey speaks out about the value of italic. She believes it should be taught to all children in all schools. If taught well it evolves into a personal hand. Some may want to perfect its looks, and some may just want a workhorse handwriting. Not all joins need to be made, and some may get added. And so it should be.

It’s so easy to teach the simple basic letters to the young.

Florey wrote Script and Scribble and it’s still a good seller. To get a glimpse of her views, you might read her article for the Huffington Post: http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/kitty-burns-florey/handwriting-book_b_3998345.html
