Jack Redwing believes in letting children get dirty, dusty, and sweaty outside. He knows that kids who love nature will probably grow up to be adults who love and care about nature.

When Jack isn't writing books about farms and forests, he's living his dream on a small farm in Vermont where he's raising four children, seven cows, two llamas, and a whole bunch of chickens.
