On the Notable Poetry Book List from the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE)
They only see the outside,
not the inside part of me,
but what I'd give for the chance
to set the inside free.
This relatable, empathetic collection of poems by Kalli Dakos explores what's going on inside--from the heartbreak of losing a pet to the agony of waiting for recess to start.
