Zetta Elliott - A Place Inside of Me


Listen Later

Zetta Elliott shares A PLACE INSIDE OF ME. Zetta is a force on this earth and I had the good great fortune to connect with her to discuss A PLACE INSIDE OF ME, her new picture book illustrated by Noa Denmon. Zetta's passion for writing as both a space for growth and for taking risks has led to her having more than a few really great stories to tell, and more than a few friends readily volunteering her name as a truthsayer and a beacon of light. In A PLACE INSIDE OF ME, Zetta helps readers honor all of their emotions as a community responds to an act of racial violence and the story's protagonist processes the trauma. I can scarcely put into words how A PLACE INSIDE OF ME moved me except to say that it's a book I think about and return to even now, a long while after that first read.
