About the Author
I was born and raised in Canada, but I have lived in the United States for about 15 years. I write novels, plays, poetry, and essays; I’ve also written an award-winning picture book called Bird. You can read my complete bio here. Learn more about my other books by visiting the books page on this blog. If you have a question about my books, or if you’d like to schedule a school visit or public presentation, email me at zettaelliott at yahoo dot com (I am a NYC DOE vendor).

I like this new headshot the best. It says “I’m a pretty intellectual who can appreciate nature.”
That’s hilarious, Evelyn! It’s interesting how I have to wear the glasses to be seen as an intellectual…do you get more respect when you wear yours?
I think so because it makes me look more mature. Too often I am mistaken for being younger than I am.
