Lettering Books I Love and Recommend

When I first starting lettering it was SO hard to find a lettering book. Now it's so difficult to choose a lettering book.

I have favorites to begin with and favorites as you grow. I have favorites because of the people who have influenced me and I love their style and favorites simply because of the way they are set up. So, let's begin. As we go, I will include links (if available for purchase).

For Beginners:

1. The Ultimate Brush Lettering Guide by Peggy Dean

2. Super Simple Hand Lettering by Kiley Bennett

3. Hand Lettering 101: An Introduction to the Art of Creative Lettering by ChalkfullofLove

4. Lettering and Modern Calligraphy: A Beginner's Guide by Paper Peony Press

For Faith-Based Lettering:

1. My Church Lettering Journal by Amanda Arneill

2. Faith and Lettering by Krystal Whitten (currently sold out at the time of writing this - keep searching it always comes back in stock)

For Intermediate Lettering (think learning layout, expanded styles, etc)

1. Mastering Hand-Lettering by Mye De Leon

2. The Joy of Lettering: A Creative Exploration of Contemporary Hand Lettering, Typography and Illustrated Typeface by Gabri Joy Kirkendall
