Author's note

Bambi Bold, Gerard E. Bernor's free serif font from 1995, leans into a warm old-style mood with broad, rounded letters and a soft, storybook weight. The forms feel full and friendly rather than sharp, with generous curves, compact serifs, and a slightly quaint rhythm that keeps the font expressive without turning fussy.

That makes it a natural fit for children's book covers, boutique packaging, cafe menus, vintage-minded posters, and short editorial headlines where a little warmth matters. As a free font, it also suits title cards, chapter openers, and branding lines that benefit from its plush, literary texture.
