- Reader Views Kids

"An irresistible and inclusive invitation to skip, roll, or run to the sea, to the pond, to the woods-where magic awaits!"

​​​​​​​- Sy Montgomery, national bestselling author of How to Be a Good Creature

A 2025 Nautilus Book Award winner, The Inside of ME is more than a story-it's a gentle call to slow down, step outside, and discover the beauty of both the earth and our inner lives.

Critical Reviews

"A word-and-picture book that takes children and parents on a sun-and-wind-blown joy ride across the place where we live, reawakening our childhood souls in much the same way that Dylan Thomas's 'Fern Hill' does."

--Kerry Hardy, researcher, eco-historian, and author of Notes on a Lost Flute: A Field Guide to the Wabanaki


"The Inside of ME is a beautiful book that reminds children of all ages of the joy and gratitude we have for our intimate relationship with Mother Earth and all her children. It is a book to have in your personal library."

--Dr. Anita Sanchez, Nahua & Toltec, author of The Four Sacred Gifts: Indigenous Wisdom for Modern Times


"In a simple, classic style of books like Good Night Moon, The Inside of ME is a heartwarming and charming book that will inspire children and adults to go outside and play. With delightful illustrations and poetic language, readers are reminded of how sparkly and happy we feel when we immerse ourselves in the beauty of nature."

--Ellen Dee Davidson, author, forest listener, mother, and grandmother


"The Inside of ME is an irresistible and inclusive invitation to skip, roll, or run to the sea, to the pond, or to the woods--where magic awaits! Recommendations for specific spots in Maine to visit, and fun activities to do there, guarantee unforgettable encounters with nature--moments that can change a kid's life. Brava!"

--Sy Montgomery, national bestselling author of How to Be a Good Creature
