An early-learning counting book for young children, published in Sinhala by M. D. Gunasena & Co. of Colombo, a long-established Sri Lankan publishing house producing school and children's books.
The subject is the numbers one to ten — the first counting most children do, at home or in the year or two before formal schooling. Books of this kind are usually handled with an adult sitting alongside, pointing and naming, rather than read alone.
Buyers outside Sri Lanka should note that the text is in Sinhala, despite the English title. It will suit Sinhala-speaking families raising children abroad, households where a parent or grandparent reads in Sinhala, and anyone teaching the language to a small child who wants simple material to work through together. If no one in the house reads Sinhala, this is not the book to start with.
It also has a place in Sinhala-language nursery and preschool settings, and on the shelves of collectors and teachers assembling Sri Lankan early-years material.
