Hmm, this is a hard book to describe well to others. Sort of a tiny primer about typefaces and letters. Very short, very simple, yet a book that can be enjoyed over and over, the graphics are so lovely and creative. Every time I pick this tiny book up, there is a new revelation for me to see. Just love it!

The story was kind of thin, but he used letters cleverly to create trees, animals, structures. As a font aficionado I found it charming.

I have always been obsessed with fonts. I want this book so bad!!!

Adorable explorations in the world of letters, the Serif Fairy searches for her lost wing in the Garamond Forest, Futura City, etc. Very sweet.
