Literacy manual 'Shabdadekhi Waakyasamma' (from word to sentence) is the first book of its kind prepared for the second generation of the Nepali diaspora living outside Nepal so that they can read and write the Nepali language by themselves at home. Madhav Shivakoti, the author of the book, has written it in English Roman, Nepali alphabet, and English translation. This manual will be a useful resource for Nepali second-generation immigrants who are learning only the English language. This book is written using a non-formal education method based on Shivakoti's experience of working in national and international organizations, so the readers can learn words and sentences directly from Nepali culture while living with their families. It is called Literacy Manual as both English and Nepali languages can be learned easily through self-study methods. The presented book is not only beneficial for learning the language personally, but it will also prove to be equally useful for organizations working in non-formal education." - Kapil Kafle
