By: Jane Kurtz "I can't wait to share this new middle grade novel with the city it celebrates," ABOUT Author Jane Kurtz Jane Kurtz, author of more than thirty books for young readers, was born in Portland, Oregon, but her parents moved to Ethiopia when she was two-years-old. Her volunteer work with literacy there led to her connections with parents who've adopted children from Ethiopia, one of the threads of her new book. She's now rooted in Portland again (literally…she has turned her yard into a certified Backyard Habitat). From here, she travels to speak nationally and internationally and to teach in the Vermont College MFA in Children's and YA Literature.
