A retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears in Sinhala, prepared for young children. The text is entirely in Sinhala — there is no English in it — so this is a book for a child who reads Sinhala, or for an adult reading aloud in Sinhala to a child who does not yet read.
Hiruni Fernando has rewritten the familiar story in simple language pitched at early readers. It is printed on glossy paper with colour illustrations throughout, and belongs to a series of fairy tale books issued by M. D. Gunasena & Co. for children in Sri Lanka.
For families abroad raising children in Sinhala, this kind of book does particular work: a story the child may already know in English, met again in Sinhala, with pictures carrying much of the sense. It suits read-aloud sessions and early independent reading alike, and sits naturally alongside the other titles in the same fairy tale series.
