One title in a series of colouring books from M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd, made for young children who are still building confidence with a crayon or a coloured pencil. This one takes fruit as its subject.
The pages give outline pictures to be filled in, each one named in English. Colouring and naming happen together, so a child working through the book picks up the English words for the fruits alongside the practice of staying inside a line and choosing a colour. The approach is simple and repetitive in the way that suits small children: look at the picture, hear or read the word, colour it in.
It suits pre-school and early primary-age children, at home or in a classroom, and works equally well for a child whose first language is Sinhala or Tamil and who is meeting English vocabulary for everyday things. Parents and teachers in Sri Lanka will know M. D. Gunasena as a Colombo publisher of school and children's books; this belongs to that practical, inexpensive end of its list.
Buy it on its own or alongside the other books in the series if you want a child to have more than one subject to work through.
