Stuck for a Christmas present for that fun-loving but hard-to-buy-for typophile? A charming new book from Gestalten might be the answer...

Hyperactivitypography from A to Z is a warm hearted celebration of type – full of games, puzzles and exercises on all things typographic.

Here are a few spreads from the book, which is cheekily illustrated by Studio 3, the Westerdals School of Communication in Oslo's in-house design studio.

You can play find the true of faux italic on this spread...

... and add the serifs on this one

Learn about X-heights and weights on these pages...

... and play guess the hidden C, O, or G on this spread

It's available now for £17.99 from the Gestalten online shop.

It's ok if your five I suppose. But a typographer wouldn't thank you for it. D-- Must try harder. See me after class.
