Here's What The Books Is About:
A foolishly funny tale about trusting your gut and not beleving everything/everyone on the internet. A critical conversation for kids.
Professor Nincompoop has discovered a new species of animal he's sure will be his ticket into the Professors Hall of Fame. But when his two biggest fans, Nick and Tess, start to smell a rat, the professor doubles down on his ridiculous tale that sounds more like science fiction than scientific fact.
Will the professor's discovery indeed be new? Will his story indeed be true? Or will the kids make a surprise discovery of their own?
Designed to be a funny anytime read aloud. This book is loaded with weird word play, ridiculous escalation, kooky characters, and has a humorous and heartfelt finish. The book also doubles as a comical cautionary tale about consuming online content and the importance of trusting your gut.
A must-have book for kids ages: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and grades K-3
LOOK! Professional Reviewer All Agree—Get Professor Nincompoop:
"Professor Nincompoop is an entertaining lesson in critical thinking wrapped in visual and verbal goofiness. Readers will get a kick out of the reveal, and there's a sweet coda in which Tess and Nick give the professor an alternative way to realize his dream of fame.
Vee effectively combines funny-bone humor with playful examples of logic and independent reasoning, and illustrator Askew ratchets up the narrative tone of comic chaos with full-page, full-color digital images loaded with off-the-wall wackiness. Our Verdict: Get It." — Kirkus Reviews
"A children's book that encourages young readers to think critically, Professor Nincompoop by Jimmy Vee is a wildly entertaining read with a poignant yet subtle message. A witty and visually engrossing book that inspires readers to always keep a critical mind, this is a stellar work for children with an uproarious lead character who will hopefully have more volumes in the future." — The Self-Publishing Review
"Professor Nincompoop pulls the reader in with clever conversations and brilliant illustrations. The layout of the book is much like a graphic novel or a comic book. Before long you feel like you are not only reading a cartoon but jumping right into the middle of it. Imaginations will soar while laughter fills the room. I can't wait to get this book and read it to my students and see what they can create with the guidance of Professor Nincompoop! My school library will have a basket filled with books from my new "favorite author", Jimmy Vee." — Rhonda Willford Eberst, School Librarian and Author of I Survived Pompeii: Hilarious Adventure in an Elementary School Library
"With a robust vocabulary and numerous twists and turns, Professor Nincompoop inspires the reader through harnessing a child's most powerful asset—imagination." — Sean Furniss, elementary principal
