Bullies, Be Gone! New Book Teaches Children That Blending In Is Out, And Standing Out Is In

July 30, 2014 - PRLog -- Troy, NY- New Shelves Book Distribution is proud to announce that Atlas Press has just released Little Jimmy Says, “Same is Lame” (ISBN: 9780985478223 $17.99) by Jimmy Vee.

Somewhere along the line, we were taught that it’s good to fit in and blend with the crowd; but why would we want to tone down what makes us different, when what makes us different is what makes us extraordinary?

Jimmy Vee, known as the “Five Foot High Marketing Guy,” is CEO of his creative agency, a loving husband and father, bestselling author and founder of the Same is Lame Foundation. He shows children and individuals of all ages that being unique is something to embrace in his fun new book, Little Jimmy Says, “Same is Lame.” Determined to battle the bullying epidemic that affects school-aged kids everywhere, Vee is donating one-hundred percent of proceeds from book sales to the Same is Lame Foundation, which will offer financial support, emotional encouragement, and mentoring to exceptional children.

Step right up! Little Jimmy Says, “Same is Lame” takes readers on a wondrous adventure as we follow the miniature ring-master through a circus-inspired world of weird where normal is ordinary, and ordinary is boring. Each fun-filled page is packed with vivid illustrations and inspirational messages that welcome kids of all ages, shapes, and sizes and encourages them to discover why being “different” is cool.

“I’ve seen how lacking confidence and self-esteem affects kids’ abilities to interact with others, deal with unfamiliar situations, and just enjoy life,” says Vee. “It’s amazing how a new perspective can change how people feel about themselves. Self-confidence is the cure to the bullying epidemic. It prevents kids from becoming bullies and from being bullied. It changes them from the inside out.”

Fun and impactful, Little Jimmy Says, “Same is Lame” explores:

·       Why ”exploiting your weakness” will lead you to success

·       How kids can learn to be happy with who they are, from the inside out

·       The powerful concept that ”blending in is bad, and ordinary is boring”

·       How adults and children can connect to banish their insecurities together

·       And much more!

Jimmy Vee is known around the world as the Five Foot High Marketing Guy. He is living proof that big things really do come in small packages. He is a savvy CEO, loving husband, funny father, bestselling business book author, sought-after advertising copywriter, wannabe musician, master magician, stand-up comedian and a stiff-lipped ventriloquist. This is his first children's book. All proceeds from book sales will go to the Same Is Lame Foundation for children.
