About the Author

Jana Locke is passionate about public service, and she has worked in government for over twenty years, including time as a Presidential Management Fellow. Bitten by the political bug early in life, Jana is excited to share the power of civic participation with kids. Her parents showed her how persistent and persuasive individuals can make an impact in the world, and she hopes this story passes that lesson on. Jana lives with her husband, two children, two cats and a dog in Denver. Oh, and she loves turtles!
