A Sinhala children's book written and illustrated by Sybil Wettasinghe, an experienced author and artist of stories for young readers. The text is in Sinhala throughout, with no English translation, so buyers outside Sri Lanka should order it as a Sinhala-language title.
The pictures carry much of the book. Wettasinghe drew them with young children in mind, shaping the illustrations around how children look at and respond to a page rather than treating them as decoration for the words. The result is a picture book in which image and story work together, in the manner familiar to readers who grew up with her work.
It is published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd, a long-established Sri Lankan publishing house. Suitable for Sinhala-speaking households, for families raising children bilingually abroad, and for collectors of Wettasinghe's illustrated books.
