About the Sonsie One font
Sonsie One is a display typeface designed by Riccardo De Franceschi, first released to Google Fonts on January 2012. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 71% of the cap height, expanded letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Sonsie One against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
