Every Body Type (Book)
ABOUT:
Every Body Type is a gentle and heartwarming book about body positivity, diversity and love. This book was created in response to the rising body image issues prevalent amongst young children, teens and even adults today. And my own previous struggles with negative body image.
Expressed through the wonderfully diverse medium of typography, this story encourages readers to embrace their differences, and to love their bodies in all their weird and wonderful forms.
Tackling topics such as size, skin colour, body-hair, make-up, style and ability, each page is brought to life with a hand-made font that literally embodies each word in the book one self-affirming page at a time <3
