When Kathy is Keith: Surrey psychologist Wallace Wong releases transgender children's book

No one believes Kathy. Not her friends, her teachers, her parents, not even Santa Claus. No one believes that she really wants to be a boy.

But Wallace Wong, a clinical psychologist of the Adolescent and Children Sexual Health Program of the Child and Youth Mental Health Services in Surrey, does. In fact, he made a book about it.

Wong wrote the illustrated book When Kathy is Keith , which broaches the sensitive and often misunderstood issue of transgender children. It follows the story of Kathy, a young girl who says she is a boy but no one takes her seriously.
