Letterland - child-friendly phonics

You've met the a-z Letterland characters in the bestselling Letterland ABC book. Beyond ABC introduced you to letters coming together to make new sounds in words. Far Beyond ABC follows on, featuring even more stories to explain different spelling patterns. With the help of all three books in the series, all the major sounds in the English language are covered!

The Letterland system teaches all 44 English speech sounds and their main spellings through engaging stories, rather than boring rules. These stories really come into their own for explaining sounds that are spelt with two or three letters (digraphs and trigraphs) instead of one. This book has 20 of them! They will help your child to confidently tackle and enjoy many hundreds of words.

Far Beyond ABC completes an invaluable set of three books, which together hold the key to learning to read. Beautifully illustrated, it opens up the secrets of 20 more major English spelling patterns. The best of it is that the child-friendly story logic draws on children's thinking skills and their imaginations, so they easily remember the phonic facts that the stories carry.

Letterland Far Beyond ABC introduces 20 digraphs and trigraphs in full colour scenes. The story logic for each new sound is given and children are encouraged to search the scenes looking for the target sound in initial, medial and final positions in words. Phonemic awareness, phonics and vocabulary development has never been so much fun! The combination of memorable characters and sound educational principles makes Letterland the ideal way to introduce your child to the alphabet.
