Nine poignant manga essays about navigating life with developmental disorders and disabilities.
This intimate manga anthology is about the struggles and successes of individuals learning to navigate daily life with a developmental disorder. The comics follow the stories of nine people, including: a junior high dropout finding an alternate path to education; a former "troublesome" child helping kids at a support school; a so-called problem child realizing the beauty of his own unique quirks; and a man falling in love with the world with the help of a new medication.
This book illustrates the anxieties and triumphs of people living in a world not quite built with them in mind.
