    Jones Stories Author 
Jamee Dee 
  
Hi everyone! 
  
Above all else, I’m a dad of four children. 
These interactive Jones Stories were shared verbally with my two youngest children. These stories are designed to expand parent’s and children’s imaginations. Jones Stories are and were maximum FUN! 
  
I’ve been writing for many years. I’ve written film screenplays, scripts, magazine articles, advertising copy, and I’ve worked in the entertainment business for over 30 years. 
As a parent, I wanted something different for my children, to stir their active imaginations. 
To keep the action moving, these books are written like a movie script. Very little description is given, so that each child uses their own imagination. 
Everyone gets the story in their own mind’s eye. 
  
These stories were loved by my children and please enjoy the wild Jones Family ride. 
The Jones Family are an average family that stumbles into a world of magic. 
  
Thank you all, 
Jamee Dee

    A sidesplitting classic from Newbery Medalist and National Book Award winner Louis Sachar (Holes) 
  
Gary W. Boone knows he was born to be a stand-up comedian. It’s the rest of the kids in his class who think he’s just a goon. Then the Floyd Hicks Junior High School Talent Show is announced, and he starts practicing his routine nonstop to get it just right. Gary’s sure this will be his big break—he’ll make everyone laugh and win the $100 prize. But when an outrageous surprise threatens to turn his debut into a disaster, it looks as if the biggest joke of all may be on Gary himself. 
  
"With its strong, realistic characterization, Sachar’s gracefully told story will please his longtime fans and gain him new followers as well"—Publishers Weekly
