There really is nothing quite like curling up with a fascinating book! For some people, however, reading is a bit more challenging because of vision difficulties. Large print books offer a fantastic solution. They can be read comfortably without having to worry about eye strain.
The text in most reading material is pretty small. It’s designed this way to pack the most content into the fewest pages. Seniors often use reading glasses in order to see smaller print. As our eyes age, it becomes a more difficult to clearly focus on small objects. This can be discouraging for someone who finds solace in reading.
Large print books may allow some seniors to regain their joy in reading.
With large print books, there’s no more eye strain or need to hold books too close in order to read. Many new titles are now being released in this format, which is great news for anyone who has trouble reading standard size text.
Another great option is e-readers. Not only because the text size and fonts can be adjusted, but because e-readers are lightweight, portable, and most of all, there is an endless collection of titles available to instantly download with the tap of a finger.
Now more than ever, there’s no excuse for not reading. With many best-sellers and classics available in large-print or electronically, you’ll never again miss out on the next best how-to book, page-turning novel, or thriller.
