This episode takes us on a trip through Atlanta, exploring the sights, sounds, and stories of the city so that we may take it with us, wherever we go.

Atlanta, My Home Was a 2022 Mayor's Summer Reading Club selection, commissioned by our friends at the Alliance Theatre.

The person reading the stories in this episode of The Podcast Where They Read Stories is Breanna J. McDaniel, an author, researcher, and doctor who focuses on education and representation in youth literature. Which is a really fancy way of saying that she cares about learning and characters in books a whole lot - as we all should! Breanna grew up in College Park and East Point, which makes Atlanta her home. And that makes sense because she wrote this book, Atlanta, My Home. How cool is that?
