Jimmy Vee grew up making puppets and learning to talk without moving his lips. When he's not writing funny picture books, he entertains people with magic and ventriloquism. Jimmy is the executive director of the Vent Haven International Ventriloquist ConVENTion and the author of How to Make Your Sock Talk: A Beginner's Guide to Ventriloquism. He lives in Orlando, Florida, with his wife, two kids, two dogs, over
100 ventriloquist dummies, and a drawer full of sock puppets.
