Ryan Dunlap hopes to raise $6,000 for his steampunk picture book, The Littlest Clockwork. The story follows the friendship of a young boy and a clockwork girl.
The funds will be used to cover costs of self-publishing, printing, and shipping. We’ve embedded a video about the project above. Here’s more from the Kickstarter page:
“The Littlest Clockwork is a children’s picture book featured in the novel, The Wind Merchant, a steampunk fantasy novel I Kickstarted back in early 2012. In the novel, the children’s book goes by the title The Littlest Elder, which is another name for a Clockwork person in that world.”
