It's been a journey these last few months here at Sarah Grace Publishing as we've seen the exposure and excitement around the Grace Dsylexic Typeface grow. Well, the journey only continues as Sarah Grace was featured in Premier's Woman Alive Magazine last month, talking about this 'new movement in dyslexia-friendly literature.'
After sharing about her own story with dyslexia, Sarah mentions how we've seen such a positive reception to the dyslexia-friendly Bibles published by Lifeway and Crossway Publishers in the United States.
We thought it would be good to show you the continuing impact across the board, including at Christian festivals, in prisons and through Children's books.
Dyslexia-friendly literature at Spring Harvest 2025
We were so delighted that the Grace Font, the typeface that all of our new titles are published in, was used in the theme book at Spring Harvest this year.
No Greater Story by Leon Evans (published by own partner imprint, Malcolm Down Publishing) is a deep dive into the book of Isaiah, and points us towards the greater story of God and where we can find our place within it.
The dyslexia-friendly font certainly made a splash at Spring Harvest with fantastic feedback like this:
'The grace font makes this so easy to read. In all my life as a dyslexic, I’ve never read as much of a book in one sitting. I have hardly lost my place and am able to fully engage with the wonderful narrative and thoughts Leon explores God's great story, and our part within it.' - Tim Brennan
Dyslexia-friendly literature in prisons
The Grace font has also been making a big impact in female prisons through the work of Sarah Grace and one of our authors, Simeon Sturney. Author of You, Me and the Butterfly, Simeon is also the Chaplain at HMP YOI Bronzefield and wrote this book for female prisoners to be offered the chance at freedom and transformation.
The use of the Grace font in these books has made a massive difference, as shown by this review from one of the prisoners, many of whom struggle to read:
'I thought it was amazing. My nose was stuck in it. I couldn’t get my nose out of it. Reminds me of everyday real life prison. My first time in prison and I read that book and I was like yeah.'
Sarah has also shared her own books, Journey with Grace and Journal with Grace, with people in prison - they too are published in the Grace Font and have had an equally significant impact on these people's lives.
