About the author

Vicky Franchino has always liked to learn about people who have made a difference in the world.

She hopes Clemente's story will help to inspire others to use their talents and time to make the world a better place. Vicky is the author of a number of other nonfiction books for children, and lives with her husband and their three daughters in Wisconsin.
