Couples Who Collaborate: Jarrett and Jerome Pumphrey

Abstract

Jarrett Pumphrey and his younger brother Jerome may not be a couple in the traditional sense of the word, but these brothers certainly form a dynamic partnership to create memorable picture books.

Since a young age, the two have been working together to craft stories to engage and entertain readers of all ages. They wrote their first book together as teenagers (Creepy Things Are Scaring Me, 2003). With two more picture books to their collaborative credit, including The Old Truck (2020) and The Old Boat (2021), watch for much more to come from this wonderfully creative duo.
