Adora Svitak is an inspiring 12 year old author. Her first book Flying Fingers was published when she was just seven years old.

She is a voracious reader and when her mother bought her a used Dell laptop in her sixth year, she had typed out over 300 short stories and poems within the first year. Many publishers refused to publish her first book as they felt she was too young. But one publisher did and her literary career was born!

Svitak speaks across the country to both adults and kids about the power children have to change the world.

The video says that democracy gives you freedom of choice. Does that mean you should have the choice to skip school? :)
