Turkmenistan has published the book "Yartygulak and his Friends" to help children aged 4 to 10 develop healthy habits from an early age.

The book was published owing to the collaboration of UNICEF and Turkmenistan's Ministry of Health and Medical Industry.

Yartygulak is a well-known Turkmen folk hero. He and his friends guide kids on a healthy lifestyle journey through interactive games, colouring books, puzzles, and other activities. A fun, colourful, and entertaining book aimed primarily at children, but anyone can benefit from the wise counsel of the little hero and his friends.

The book is available in Turkmen and Russian on the UNICEF Turkmenistan website.

The book's publication was funded by the Turkmen government and the World Bank as part of the "Response to COVID-19 in Turkmenistan" project.
