Blending a structured phonics approach to reading and writing with whole-language teaching, this series is consistent with the National Curriculum and the Scottish 5-14 Guidelines. Children learn about the alphabet through characters such as Annie Apple, Bouncy Ben and Clever Cat. The wide range of materials includes teacher's guides, flashcards, friezes, posters, songbooks, cassettes, copymasters, workbooks, storybooks, videos, games and computer software. The series is divided into "Early Years" materials for three- and four-year-olds, "Programme 1" for four- and five-year-olds, "Programme 2" for children aged five years and above, and support materials. This is the third of four "Programme 1" workbooks.

Maggie Downer has worked on many projects, both educational and fictional, in books and magazines, the vast majority of them connected with children's literature. Lyn Wendon is reading specialist who devised Letterland as a remedy for reading failure. Working among children with learning difficulties, she found they needed a style of teaching that not only explained letter behaviour, but also fired their imaginations. The result was Letterland! Louis Fidge is a former Primary school headteacher and an established, successful educational author. Among his other publications for Collins is the series Collins Focus on Word Work.
