The handwriting-type face is used in the book whenever the words are taken directly from the journal of the main character, Steve Harmon. It is the opening sentence of Walter Dean Myers’ novel, MONSTER. “The best time to cry is at night, when the lights are out and someone is being beaten up and screaming for help.” The pathos of that opening sentence is accentuated by the type face chosen which looks like a child’s handwriting.
