Debi Derryberry (the voice of Nickelodeon’s Jimmy Neutron) combines jazz, folk, calypso and reggae styles with her whimsical flying Baby Banana character in this CD of nine original songs about freckles, tropical fruit, an orangutan and more. The 10th track features Debi reading her story “Baby Banana and the Licorice Tree.”
— The Casual Perfectionist’s JoAnn listened to the CD several times with her daughter. Both enjoyed the silly subjects of the songs and Debi’s “magical” singing. JoAnn concluded, “This is a CD that will stay near the top of our collection for a while!”
— Michelle from Flying Giggles and Lollipops reported that her family “took this CD with us on our camping trip and all the children had a blast when we played it.” She laughed to the CD along with her kids, explaining, “This is one you will not mind listening to, which is a good thing, because your children are going to be requesting it over and over again!”

Award-winning Hollywood voice-over artist Debi Derryberry — the voice of “Jimmy Neutron,” Playhouse Disney’s host, “Clay,” and dozens of other animated characters — got her first guitar when she was 9 and has been writing songs and singing ever since. “Very Derryberry,” Debi’s second kids’ album, is the perfect vehicle for her happy, clever and tickle-bone funny, yet stunningly perceptive lyrics that convey a sense of being right there with the kids. “The vivacious energy of Debi Derryberry’s music is so authentically attuned to the world of the child that adults sense they are eavesdropping on an inside joke or perhaps a deep secret between Debi and each child,” Elizabeth Waldman Frazier of Waldmania! told TDmonthly. Launch date: January 2008.
