A Sinhala-language adventure story for young readers, written by Gethmini Priyanwada Welikala. The whole text is in Sinhala, with no English translation, so it will suit readers and families who are comfortable reading the language.
The story is built around a group of children in a remote rural district who discover that unlawful activities are going on at a farm nearby. What follows is a tale of their courage as they set about bringing what they have found into the open — the kind of plot that puts children at the centre of the action and lets them, rather than the adults around them, do the work of putting things right.
It is published by M. D. Gunasena & Co. (Pvt) Ltd, an established Colombo house that publishes in Sinhala and English, with a long-standing list of schoolbooks and children's titles. For buyers abroad, this is a useful sort of book to have on the shelf for a child learning to read in Sinhala at home: a contemporary story with a clear narrative drive, rather than a textbook or a graded reader.
