A picture book for young children by Sybil Wettasinghe, the Sri Lankan illustrator and children's author, published in English by M. D. Gunasena & Co. of Colombo.
It belongs to a series of large letter books Wettasinghe made for small children — the text set in big type, carried alongside her drawings. Books of this kind are made to be read aloud as much as read alone, with an adult turning the pages and a child following the words and pictures together.
Wettasinghe wrote and illustrated children's books across a long career, and her work is familiar to generations of Sri Lankan readers who grew up with her stories and her unmistakable line drawings. This English edition puts one of those books within reach of children and families outside Sri Lanka, and of Sri Lankan households abroad reading in English at home.
