A Christmas Carol: Dyslexic Friendly Edition

A Christmas Carol (in Prose: Being a Ghost Story of Christmas.) is a novella by Charles Dickens first published in London in 1843. It tells the story of a grump-of-a-man named Ebenezer Scrooge who thinks only about himself and his money. On Christmas Eve he is visited by the ghost of his old business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him that his current path will lead to eternal misery bound by the chains of his own selfishness. That night he is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past, The Ghost of Christmas Present and The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Only through these three spirits will he be able to gain salvation.This Dyslexic Friendly Edition uses a special 12pt font typeface called OpenDyslexic, which has been developed to address some of the common issues that dyslexics have when reading a typical typeface. Letters are designed with heavy weighted bottoms to indicate direction, which aids in recognizing the correct letter orientation. Even people that do not suffer from dyslexia find OpenDyslexic easier to read thanks, in part, to the wider letter spacing the typeface offers.
