Autorenporträt
Raised in upstate New York and seasoned on the road, Ian Klepetar is known around the country for his bicycle advocacy efforts and unwillingness to conform to a normal life. A child who was never interested in growing up jumps into the book world with two sure-to-be best sellers. Klepetar's witty rhymes hope to inspire and breed a new generation of humans who are willing to focus their efforts on indepent thought, community action, earth-minded decision making and a yes-we-can attitude.

Perhaps finding that his ideas were too ambitious for his conservative hometown of 30,000 people, Klepetar felt that the slow to change attitude of Saratoga Springssojourn in Argentina to teach English in 2006 and upon returning 2 years later, he was poised once again to make change. This time his goals were a bit greater. Wh
