What Readers Are Saying
“Please, please, please make more of these books! There are so many enjoyable wannabe songs on your kid’s channel and we love, love, love this book but it only has four of the Wannabe poems. Turn them all into picture books! They’re great and our kids love them. Fun to read and pretend!”
Martha Higgins, a true Art, Song, and Story Fan
“Nappa’s Wannabe songs and books are so imaginative and fun for kids. I first discovered these delightful poems for children on the YouTube Channel and then fell in love with the picture book once we discovered it was available. My 8-year-old daughter absolutely loves these stories. It helps kids imagine being simple and delightful things like a puffy cloud, a bumble bee and so much more. You’ll have a blast reading this to your kids or listening to them read it to you!”

Why I Wrote Did You Ever Wannabe?

As a storyteller and dad, I wanted to create a book that makes kids light up with laughter while planting seeds of hope, freedom to imagine, and endless possibility. Did You Ever Wannabe? is an invitation for children to explore their talents, embrace big dreams, and remember that life’s greatest adventures begin with imagination and curiosity.
