The Inside of ME

By: Comeau, Jennifer

Winner of the 2025 Gold Nautilus Book Award

What does the outside world have to do with what's inside you? More than you might expect.

The Inside of ME is a lyrical picture book told in gentle rhyme that invites children to step outside, pay attention, and discover their own inner richness through the natural world around them.

Each illustration features a real, child-friendly location in Maine open to the public-turning the book into a quiet guide for outdoor adventure, wherever you call home.

"A word-and-picture book that takes children and parents on a sun-and-wind-blown joy ride across the place where we live." -Kerry Hardy, eco-historian and author of Notes on a Lost Flute
