My Maine

How is Maine special to you?

Children and adults alike will be delighted by a young girl's answer to this question at "show and tell." Join in on a real Maine adventure—go to a county fair, pick wild blueberries, and search for sea glass. Take in the magnificent sights from the mountains and lakes to the rocky coast and learn some state facts along the way, all while being accompanied by an adorable stuffed moose!
