School Visits

Currently scheduling visits for the 2026-2027 school year.

In a world full of technology designed to distract, it’s more difficult than ever to get students excited about reading. When artificial intelligence can write for us, convincing young learners about the importance of learning to write for themselves can be a challenge.

Jimmy’s author visits engage and excite students about the foundational skills of reading and writing. He has a particular knack for connecting with the most reluctant of readers, but his presentations will inspire even the most avid readers in your student body. He will also get them excited about writing!

Thank you for your interest in booking an author visit with Jimmy. He’d be honored to partner with your school in this way.

A Recent Teacher Testimonial

The feedback has been phenomenal. It was a wonderful presentation, and the school has been quite a buzz ever since… our school librarian came to me requesting that I hurry up and get those books into the library because she was getting so many requests for them. I told her that we were definitely going to need to order a few more sets, and she agreed.

My own class had a writing assignment the day after, and I could tell that they truly were inspired as the creativity is definitely more than in the past! I have no doubt that other teachers are having similar experiences in their own classrooms.
