Each of the seven books in the series has been designed to utilize the child's natural curiosity and thirst for learning.

The Instruction Manual for teachers and homeschool parents provides additional guidance for all grades.

Getty-Dubay Italic is...

Legible. Italic letterforms are uncluttered and loop-free, even when written rapidly.

Logical. The transition from printing to cursive is straightforward and intuitive. Letter shapes remain the same from basic italic to cursive italic, eliminating the abrupt leap from ""ball and stick"" to looped cursive seen in other programs.

Easy to Write. The elliptical shapes and strokes of italic conform to natural, rhythmic hand movements. The letters are formed easily and quickly.

Easy to Teach. The Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series provides a clear, concise, step-by-step approach with opportunity for lots of practice.

""Many parents have thanked me for helping their child develop this attractive, legible handwriting."" -- Vicki Swartz, National Teachers Hall of Fame

""Inga and Barbara deserve the thanks of every teacher and every parent. It's a breakthrough at last!"" -- Betty Edwards, Ph.D., Author of Drawing on the Right Side of The Brain
