«Down» is the children's and young adult book by Mª Ángeles Alfaya Bernardez, published by edebé in paperback (160 pages, in Catalan).
A boy narrates in the first person his relationship with his cousin, who has Down syndrome and prefers to be called Down rather than Guille. He likes blue daisies and counts flowers to sleep; the narrator doesn't understand why his mother gets angry and finds adults strange. A story about diversity, inclusion and the child's gaze.
Number 13 of the Tucà Taronja collection, first published in 2006. Translated from Galician by Josep Manel Martínez.
For child readers aged 8 and up, especially those looking for stories about diversity and inclusion.
