The Village With Three Corners is a classic reading scheme written by a children’s author that children love. By showing the code and making speech sounds visible first, children can read the books with confidence. This speech-to-print approach supports self-teaching and is a world first. Individually hand-painted wooden Story Peg People encourage talk and oracy.

When we “follow the Monster Sounds” to say the word, our brains take note of which letters are graphemes and their sound value. This makes it easier to recognise spelling patterns and spell the words correctly in future.

Brains need to bond speech sounds, graphemes, and the meanings of words in order to store them for instant recognition later.
