Mi Negra by Isabel de Gregorio (Letritas) has a playful, hand-drawn quality built from a hybrid of handwritten gestures and clean sans-serif structure. Designed specifically for children, it fills the space between overly formal typography and overly casual handwriting.

Isabel created this typeface while working as an illustrator, and that background shaped every choice. She needed typography that would sit naturally alongside her illustrations and make text feel right for children's content. The letterforms carry a friendly confidence, with rounded terminals and a slightly imperfect rhythm that speaks to kids without condescension. Three weights (Light, Regular, Black) give flexibility across different layouts, while built-in ligatures and a dingbat set featuring dogs add charm and personality.

The font excels in children's book design, comic strips for young readers, product packaging for kids' snacks or toys, and DIY craft signage. It works just as well for logotypes and wayfinding in spaces designed for young audiences. With 434 characters and multilingual support for 208 languages, it's equipped for nearly any project in that space. If you work in children's illustration, educational publishing, or any project that needs warmth and personality, Mi Negra deserves a spot in your library. Find it on Creative Fabrica.
