Why we made it
Nature belongs to every kid.
Children of color remain underrepresented in books about the outdoors. Wherever a child lives, nature offers something to notice, enjoy, and call their own.
Five senses
Touch, smell, sound, sight and taste, one page at a time.
A poem to read aloud
Sweet, rhyming text for walks, parks and backyards.
Nature is everywhere
A note in the back shows that every place has something to explore.
Praise for All of Me Is Nature
What readers are saying
“This book is fantastic and helps encourage my kid to explore the outside in more creative ways.”
“Really intentionally diverse picture book, both in terms of the photos of kids as well as the way nature is defined (ex. as viewed from the window in a house, plants on a windowsill, etc). Per the publisher, \"we publish books to fill the gaps we find in children's literature.\"”
“solid, great photographs/diverse representation”
