Jade Siemens

High-school learner and assistant at Clever Hippo Book Exchange “I prefer small towns to cities,” Jade says. “Cities are full, the air is polluted and you can’t walk around because it’s not safe. It’s relaxed and quiet here, but there’s plenty to do: longboarding, surfing, skateboarding, fishing, hiking trails…” Jade is home-schooled by her mother, Megan, who owns Clever Hippo.
