This is a retelling of Zomo! by Gerald McDermott. 

This podcast was created as a collaboration between the Amite Branch of the Tangipahoa Parish Library and the Amite Elementary Magnet School 21st Century Scholars Program. This podcast was produced by me, Avery Smith. Special thanks go to Ms. Tina Cooper for all her help in making this project happen. The music was created by Lee Rosevere and is licensed for reuse under creative commons. This story was inspired by a traditional West African folktale and we learned it through Gerald McDermott’s retelling in his book Zomo!, which we read and enjoyed many times in the process of creating this podcast.
