Nenu: A Scout’s Best Friend is a delightful new children’s story about loyalty, adventure, and believing in the power of friendship. Perfect for bedtime reading and young explorers who love magical stories.
Meet All Characters
NENU
Nenu may be small, but his magic is mighty. He doesn’t fix your problems, he helps you believe that you can.
Bubs
Bubs wakes up excited about… everything. If life hands him a problem, he calls it a “surprise adventure” and throws confetti at it.
HICCUP
Hiccup feels things loudly, proudly, and occasionally mid-hiccup. Life with her is never quiet, but it’s never boring either.
JET
Jet doesn’t walk into a room, she makes an entrance. If there’s silence, she’ll fill it with a song… and possibly a costume change.
TROOPER
Trooper falls in love three times before breakfast and writes a sonnet about it before lunch. He loves love — but he loves his Treetopian friends even more. If you’re doubting yourself, he’s already written a dramatic speech about how great you are.
WILDER
Dr. Wilder is the calm in the forest storm. Equal parts wise owl and gentle life coach. When feelings get tangled, he helps gently untie the knots.
ZEP
Zep has a backup plan for her backup plan -- color-coded, laminated, and alphabetized. She’s learning that sometimes the bravest move isn’t planning more… it’s worrying less.
Steve
Steve is Dr. Wilder’s best friend and unofficial therapy assistant—although no one actually hired him. Curious, playful, and full of personality, Steve is always nearby during Treetop Therapy, offering his own quirky reactions to whatever unfolds. He may not say much, but somehow, Steve always has something to say.
Charlie
Charlie is Treetopia’s resident music man and the proud musical director of the annual Spring Spectacular. When he’s not busy rehearsing the forest’s performers and making sure everyone hits the right note, you’ll find him onstage himself as one of the show’s enthusiastic backup singers. Charlie takes his music seriously—but never himself.
FINNEAS
Finneas is Treetopia’s resident reporter, always on the lookout for the forest’s next big story. From breaking news and special events to the latest happenings around town, Finneas makes it his mission to keep everyone in Treetopia in the know. Curious, clever, and never without a question, if something’s happening in Treetopia—Finneas is probably already there reporting on it.
Nenu
🌈 I Believe…
Every cloudy day has a rainbow waiting behind it.
Nenu is a three-foot-tall wizard with a playful spirit as grand as his oversized, four-toed feet. Nenu is a master of wit, often using his sharp tongue and clever jokes to teach valuable lessons. Despite his seemingly eccentric behavior, he has a profound understanding of self-belief and inner strength. His whimsical presence and clever humor are matched only by his dedication to helping children realize their true potential. By promising magical powers, he guides them to discover that everything they need to achieve their dreams is already within themselves.
Bubs
🌈 I Believe…
Every cloudy day has a rainbow waiting behind it.
Treetopia’s Sunshine Machine
If Treetopia had its own walking ray of sunshine, it would be Bubs. With blond hair that always looks wind-kissed and eyes that sparkle even on cloudy days, Bubs radiates joy with the intensity of a confetti cannon. He’s upbeat, bubbly, and endlessly enthusiastic — sometimes too enthusiastic, if you ask certain Treetopians.
Bubs sees the good in everything. Lost your acorn? “Lucky you. Now you get to find it again!” Tree fell on your house? “Free skylight!” Even when things go sideways (which they often do), Bubs somehow finds the silver lining… and then paints it gold.
But beneath the cheerful shine is a big, soft heart. Bubs cares deeply about his friends, and his optimism, while occasionally overwhelming, always comes from the best place. Whether he’s cheering on Hiccup, reassuring Zep, or handing out unsolicited pep talks to passing chipmunks, he genuinely believes everyone is capable of greatness.
Sure, his positivity sometimes needs… boundaries (Dr. Wilder is working on that). But in a place as lively as Treetopia, Bubs is the cheerful pop of color that pulls the forest’s look together.

Hiccup
😂 My Funniest Quirk…
I hiccup whenever my emotions get the best of me!
Treetopia’s One-Person Soap Opera
Bold, expressive, and always a few emotions away from a dramatic monologue, Hiccup experiences life at full volume. She feels big, reacts big, and yes – she hiccups whenever her feelings spike, which is… often. It’s her signature quirk, popping out mid-sentence whenever excitement, frustration, or indignation hits.
Sure, Hiccup is a bit… much. Feelings come fast, loud, and often sideways. But beneath the flair and fire is a fiercely loyal friend who is always there for you. If someone is hurting, Hiccup is the first to storm in (usually ranting), ready to defend, fix, or at least offer dramatic commentary.
Of course, all this passion means Hiccup frequent visits Dr. Wilder’s treehouse. Whether it’s a feud with Jet, a meltdown over missing snacks, or a heated monologue about acorn moisturizer, Hiccup always arrives with a new episode to unpack.
But that’s exactly what makes Hiccup unforgettable. She’s intense, expressive, and full of heart… Treepeople like Hiccup aren’t problems… they’re adventures in progress. Dramatic. Loud. Lovable. All in between Hiccups.

Wilder
🍵 My Favorite Thing…
A warm cup of tea and a good conversation.
Treetopia’s Resident Therapist
With his distinguished red beard, warm eyes, and eternally calm presence, Dr. Gregor Wilder serves as Treetopia’s trusted town therapist. Once a wandering storyteller with a knack for guiding lost souls, Wilder now spends his days in his high-up treehouse office – helping the residents of Treetopia work through their worries, quirks, and emotional tangles.
Wilder has a gift for spotting what others miss. Whether he’s gently untangling Zep’s swirling anxiety, navigating Bubs’ toxic cheeriness, or mediating squabbles between the foxes and chipmunks, his advice is always steady, thoughtful, and wrapped in just the right amount of dry humor.
His not-so-official assistant is Steve, a squirrel with an intense and highly focused eating style… and an even more surprising flair for dramatic reactions to the therapy sessions. Steve often “helps” during sessions — usually by showing up with a leaf blower, a clipboard, or an attitude far larger than his tiny body.
Together, Wilder and Steve bring comfort, clarity, and a good laugh to anyone who steps into the Wilder Treehouse — because in Treetopia, even wisdom comes with its own bit of unique sparkle.

Jet
🌟 My Biggest Dream…
To shine on the biggest stage in the world.
Treetopia’s Future Broadway Legend
Jet doesn’t just walk through Treetopia – she makes an entrance. With a flair for jazz hands, a voice that’s always warming up, and dreams bigger than a redwood, Jet is absolutely convinced she is destined for Broadway… even though Broadway has no idea she exists. Yet.
To Jet, everything is a musical cue. A casual greeting becomes a duet. A disagreement becomes a power ballad. Waiting in line becomes a full tap number that no one asked for.
She can’t help it — songs bubble out of her like carbonated soda. Jet turns it into a twelve-beat scat riff and breaks into a soothing harmony (which, to be fair, occasionally helps). Even Trooper has been caught swooning mid-melody.
Jet is dramatic, confident, and bursting with theatrical energy, but beneath the sequins and big notes is a kid with a giant heart and an even bigger dream. She believes the world is more magical when you sing through it, and honestly, Treetopia is a little brighter with Jet belting in the background.
Of course, her constant musical numbers are… a lot. Which is why she often ends up in Dr. Wilder’s treehouse, talking about “managing performance impulses” while practicing vocal runs under her breath. Talented. Theatrical. Endlessly expressive. Jet isn’t just living life – she’s starring in it. And one day, she just knows the lights on Broadway will finally rise… and boy will she be ready.

Zep
🌟 My Biggest Dream…
To shine on the biggest stage in the world.
Treetopia’s Most Adorable Stress Case
Meet Zep – smart, sensitive, and always five steps ahead… sometimes ten. With a mind that spins faster than a hummingbird’s wings, Zep prepares for everything. And we mean everything. Lost your shoelace? Zep already drafted a flowchart. Slight breeze? Zep has a binder labeled “Wind Contingencies, Volume 3.”
Though her worry spirals can be loud, Zep herself is quiet, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. She feels deeply, cares fiercely, and wants everyone (including herself) to be safe, prepared, and happy. Sometimes her brain just works a little harder than it needs to.
Zep’s journey is all about learning that she doesn’t have to solve every problem at once, and she definitely doesn’t have to carry the weight of the forest on her shoulders. With each small step, each deep breath, and each moment of courage, she discovers that the world is a lot less scary when you stop long enough to live in it. Sensitive. Sweet. A little tightly wound. Zep is the heart of Treetopia, and the reminder that every big feeling deserves patience, kindness, and a moment to breathe.

Trooper
🌹 I Love…
Making everyone feel special.
Treetopia’s El Cupido
Trooper is what happens when poetry grows legs, adds a little Latin rhythm and does the Marange. Passionate, expressive, and swayed by emotion like a telenovela hero in slow motion, he falls in love at least six times before breakfast.
A kind smile? Destiny.A soft breeze? A sign from the universe. Eye contact that lasts half a second too long? My soul mate. Trooper doesn’t just feel feelings, he performs them. Every crush becomes a “gran conexión cósmica.” Every glance is fate. He delivers flowers with theatrical flair, writes sonnets in berry ink, and refers to nearly everyone as mi corazón by accident. Treetopia’s residents have learned that Trooper may appear at any moment with a heartfelt declaration, sweeping hand gestures, and a gaze lifted toward the sky as if violins are about to swell.
But beneath the El Cupido theatrics is something deeply sincere. Trooper’s heart is enormous. He isn’t chasing drama. He’s chasing connection. He wants to belong. He wants to be chosen. He wants love to choose him back.
His journey isn’t about falling in love, he’s already a champion at that. It’s about learning that love isn’t fireworks or destiny written in the clouds. Love isn’t dramatic. It’s dependable. And there’s no one more dependable than Trooper.
