Beppe loves being on the water. In fact, he lives in a houseboat on the Sidewinder River running through town. When not at school, he’s usually riding in his gondola or out on the lake fishing, and always singing to himself. Beppe’s the best boat-driver at Quantum Elementary. When he grows up, he’s going to be an opera-singing gondolier in Venice, Italy. He already dresses like a gondolier, hat and all. Beppe’s shy around the other Quantum Kids, but they’re still his friends and include him in their games.

Because he loves the traditions of his culture, Beppe’s World Abundance Project is to preserve historical places and art throughout the world. He believes many beautiful things have been created in the world, in all cultures, and wants to preserve them for future generations to enjoy.

Beppe has only one younger sister. His dad is a fisherman on one of the boats at the City of Abundance Port. His mom is the chef in Quantum Elementary’s cafeteria and the best cook in town.

Because of his dream to be a gondolier, Beppe likes to set and accomplish goals. He says little goals help him accomplish his dreams. Once a goal is set, nothing can deter him from accomplishing it. He even sees stumbling blocks as stepping stones that make him a better, stronger person. Beppe believes if we all accomplish one good goal a week, we can change the world.
