Told from the perspective of Manna, a young girl with Down’s Syndrome, I Didn’t Understand! is a tender school story about friendship, play, and the challenges of being different. As Manna shares her experiences—some joyful, some confusing—readers are invited into her world and her way of seeing things.

Based on real events, the story offers a rare and honest glimpse into Manna’s thoughts, told with warmth and empathy. The simple, expressive illustrations beautifully reflect her emotions and the moments she struggles to make sense of.
