Jim Benton
Jim Benton is not a middle-school girl, but do not hold that against him. He has managed to make a living out of being funny, anyway.
He is the creator of many licensed properties, some for big kids, some for little kids, and some for grown-ups who, frankly, are probably behaving like little kids.
You may already know his properties: It’s Happy Bunny™ or Just Jimmy ™, and the bestselling middle school series Dear Dumb Diary.
He’s created a kids’ TV series, designed clothing, and written books.
Jim Benton lives in Michigan with his spectacular wife and kids. They do not have a dog, and they especially do not have a vengeful beagle.
