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.
