The series is intended for children from preschool to grade 8. However, Books 4 to 9 and European Handwriting, may be used even by adults. Handwriting is a talent that is best developed during the time of our youth. Fortunately one can always brush up anytime or even begin as an adult. We can improve the appearance of our handwriting with diligent practice and still retain a personal style. The results of our handwriting are a telling detail of our personality. Handwriting legible notes and letters gives a certain confidence in communication. Also the privacy of letters is protected by law.
