The highly successful Wee Sing series of books and
audiocassettes is the creation of Pamela Conn Beall and her
coauthor Susan Nipp. Parents appreciate the books as wholesome
entertainment that encourages self-confidence and freedom of
expression. Teachers welcome them as an educational tool that
blends the joy of music with creativity and language development.
Beall is a mother and a former music teacher with a strong
commitment to keeping classic songs for children alive. She
believed in the importance of music for bringing children an
uplifting, joyful learning experience that led to her collaboration
on a handwritten songbook. Beall''s and Nipp''s original series has
grown into a sing-along audiocassette series with more than 15
titles. A videocassette series with more than 10 titles was
launched in 1985. The subjects are varied-from America to nursery
rhymes, from dinosaurs to silly songs-but the theme is constant.
These are enriching songs, stories, and activities that show
children the beauty and wonder around them. Beall has a B.A. in
music with a minor in education from Oregon State University and
has taught elementary music in the Portland area. Beall lives in
Oswego, Oregon.
Susan Hagen Nipp was born and raised in Spokane, Washington. As
children, the Nipp and her two brotheres sang in the church choir,
joined in trios and quartets, and played various instruments. Nipp
studied piano and flute and was in her high school and college
band, orchestra, and choir. She received her Bachelor of Arts
degree in music with a minor in education from Whitworth College in
Spokane. Upon graduation, she taught high school English in
Washington and later, elementary school music in Oregon. Pam Beall
and Susan Nipp met in 1972 while taking graduate music classes in
Portland, Oregon, where they were elementary music teachers. Nipp
and Beall created the Wee Sing Series in 1977, when they realized
that while many people remember the first words of classic
children''s songs, most could not remember every word and note. In
order to keep this music alive, the creators hand wrote a song book
containing many old favorites. The authors invested $200 and
distributed the books throughout the Pacific Northwest. Their
immediate success helped pioneer a resurgence in traditional
children''s music and prompted expansion to audiocassettes. Two
years and 20,000 copies later, their book was acquired by Price
Stern Sloan, an imprint of Penguin Group, USA. In 1981, they addied
audiocassettes to their established songbook collection. In 1985,
another new sensation occurred as the first Wee Sing video was
produced. Most of the videos were produced in Portland, Oregon, by
Poulshock Productions. Wee Sing has been going strong for over 25
years with more than 60 titles having been created in different
formats including songbooks, cassettes, CDs, coloringactivity
books, toys, and videos. Over 50 million product items have been
sold around the world.
