Abstract

There is increasing concern about the question of cultural authenticity in stories. Getting the visual details right is a big responsibility that has to be carried out with limited resources. Emphasizes the importance of the writer, illustrator and editor immersing themselves in the subject so that they can produce a story and illustrations that accurately reflect the lives of real people all over the world
