In her story, a boy and a girl, Alice Mano, depict adults' difficulties and successes through her portrayal of young narrator and her brother. Through a narrator, the theme of gender - character stereotypes is deep and unfair, and that is the impact on adulthood. The protagonist of the Munro story whose identity is unknown experienced an extreme and radical adult resembling her brothers.

According to the theme of Munro's story, enlightenment and adulthood are essential and necessary experiences.
