A doting dad has created a cartoon series starring his daughter who has Down’s syndrome.

Just Jessica is the work of 59-year-old psychiatric nurse Fred Wills Sr., and follows the life of his youngest child, Jessica.

Fred from Connecticut, USA, has drawn cartoons of all his children over the years, and started drawing the Just Jessica cartoon around 18 months ago.

He draws the cartoons in the evening – often reflecting on the events of the day – and posts them on the microwave for Jessica to see in the morning.

He told the Today Show: ‘Every morning, it’s the first thing she looks for… She loves them.’
