Jack is the best-selling author of Jack's Garage: Tire Maintenance for Kids and has big goals for his maintenance series! He wants to see more kids understand the inner workings of cars and trucks so that they know how to take care of them as they get older and start buying their own vehicles. Jack started working on vehicles alongside his dad when he was about 3 years old. Even if he was just holding a screwdriver off to the side, he was carefully observing and asking a ton of questions. When Dad didn't know the answer, the two would sit side-by-side and look it up together. Once he mastered his first Radio Flyer tricycle, he moved on to scooters, motorcycles, tractors, cars, trucks (and even boats!). He's not afraid to get insanely dirty (much to Mom's chagrin) and knows more about carburetors than Crayola.
