Books Kinokuniya

A gorgeously illustrated and deeply endearing story about a young child and the special days she spends with her grandfather.

Join Dinalie Dabarera as she launches her debut solo picture book, "Quiet Time with My Seeya", a heart-warming meditation on the immutable bond between grandparent and grandchild, brimming with sweet mischief and tender insight.There will be a reading followed by discussion, fun drawing activities and a book signing - a perfect day to spend with your seeya, gumang, grandpa, gung gung or nonno. Aachchis, dyinguranangs, grandmas, po pos, nonnas and the whole family are welcome!About the book:Time with my seeya is quiet time. Mum says that's because Seeya and I speak different languages. But that doesn't matter to us, because my seeya and I like all the same things…Whether they are playing dress-ups, going on adventures, making pittu, or reading to each other, any time shared between Sona and her seeya - her Sinhalese grandfather - is full of delight and bursting with love.
