I won't give this graphic novel a rating because I won't give a rating to someone's life. It is a hard topic and I praise the author for being so vulnerable.
I do however wanna point out that there is a lot of ableism against people with down syndrome, and even the use of the r word.
So, be cautious.
One thing I loved, this graphic novel is so... quiet. A lot of snow, no hard sounds. Perfect if you wanna enjoy a quiet moment alone
