Who is Jimmy Vee?

Inspiring Kids to Laugh & Love Reading

Inspiring Kids to Laugh & Love Reading

I'm a weirdo writer, a doofy dad with the goofiness cranked to max, a magician with magic up my sleeves, a voice-slinging ventriloquist, and a trumpet-tooting laugh artist. My quest? To make kids crack up so they'll make books their BFF! πŸ“š

Hatched in the bustling vibes of New York but seasoned under the sunny skies of Florida, that's where I've set up my circus tent with my wonderful wife, our two mini-Vee's, and a pair of whippets who could easily catch a ghost faster than Pac-Man.

I'm a fan of the wonderfully weird and the blissfully bizarre. Give me myths that make you wonder (talking 'bout you, Bigfoot!), sawdust, circus and sideshows, puppets, Muppets and marionettes, and the sheer spectacle of vintage vaudeville.

Having been raised on the nostalgia of the 80s, I'm all about those iconic flicks (think Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Goonies), cartoons that defined cool (like Looney Tunes), wrestling that defied gravity (Ooh YEAH!), and comical commercials that…well, they just don't make 'em like they used to. And guess what? This love affair with all things creative, commercial and quirky led me to conjure my own advertising agency.

When I'm not writing crazy commercials, I spend my time coming up with kooky characters and silly stories that will hopefully give kids a big ol' belly laugh. ✨

Oh, and I love alliteration tooβ€”if you couldn't tell!
