Judges’ comments A no-nonsense, easy-to-follow workbook that has a clear delineation between the instruction and the activity portions of the book, with plenty of space to write in. The typographic choice of a narrower, more condensed body font allows for a larger font size, whilst still maintaining a good density of information for the page count. No space is wasted, and a clear typographic hierarchy is utilised, while a sprinkling of photography supports the text and gives context, as well as adding some visual charge to the layout.
