Katy Didn’t
- Johnny has now added another facet to his career – published author! In September 2020, Peter Pauper Press released Johnny’s first children’s book, titled Katy Didn’t, full color hardcover format.
- Katy Didn’t is a picture book for ages 3-8 that addresses themes of inclusion, friendship, diversity, bullying and good citizenship, all with a nod to bugs and the natural world. While crafting this story, Johnny took his inspiration from the many years he has worked with young children in pre-schools, elementary schools and schools for children with disabilities.
