Younes

"Younis" is a heartwarming children's story about a boy named Younis who has Down syndrome and loves cooking, especially making sweets. Each dessert he makes is marked with a blue bird—his personal symbol—and wrapped as gifts for the children in his village. When Younis falls ill and the sweets disappear, the other children discover the secret behind the blue bird. Younis’s dream grows, and he eventually opens the beloved Blue Bird Bakery—a tale that encourages looking beyond appearances and embracing differences.
