Finished reading: With the Light: Raising an Autistic Child (With the Light, #1) by Keiko Tobe 📚

I read this first chapter of the extended manga series some time ago. The story still touches me, about a young family in modern Japan raising a child with autism. In a society where there is little support for autism. The mother does everything possible to give her son a good upbringing and education. There is much ignorance in her environment around autism. Slowly, she meets more like-minded people who accept her son as he is.

I once found the complete series in a Manga and Anime exhibition in our public library. You can see the size of each volume on the picture below. This exhibition was organized with a local Manga shop who, as I just found out, have gone out of business in 2022.
