About this book

The same fifteen King James verses about hope, re-set as a large-print edition. The traceable script is larger, each line is broken shorter so no row feels cramped, the guide rows sit further apart and the instructions are set in a bigger face. The order is unchanged: strokes and both alphabets first, then each verse with its own spread — small print to read, two key words, one phrase, and every line traced and copied. Made for older hands and tired eyes, and for anyone who finds a roomier page easier to work on.

What you will write

15 passages , KJV and public domain. Each one gets key words, a phrase, and then the whole passage line by line.

Look inside

Actual pages from the PDF, at print size. The light script is the exemplar you trace; the empty rows underneath are yours.

Who it is for

For 55+ practitioners, anyone with low vision, and care homes and church groups who need pages that read across a table.

This edition is re-set, not enlarged: bigger traceable script, taller and wider guide rows, larger instructions, and lines broken at 32 characters instead of 46.

Licence

Personal use, no copy limit. Print it for yourself and your household as often as you like. Reselling the file, sharing it publicly or handing it out as class material is not covered — for a church group, Bible study or classroom set, email us and we will sort out a group licence.

Scripture is the King James Version. Non-scripture text is public domain.
