		The author's ethnic background is closely linked to the issue of relevance, that is, a situation in which the child as reader can identify culturally with a story, setting or character in a piece of literature.

		Although authors often write about characters of the opposite sex and children of both sexes are represented in the books, it nevertheless remains crucial for more males to talk to children through their books.
