Phillip Van Wagoner and Spencer Smith hope to raise $12,000 on Kickstarter for a children’s poetry book entitled Could You Hug A Cactus?. We’ve embedded a video about the project above.
Here’s more from the Kickstarter page: “Beginning with the title, adults and children alike are challenged to ask themselves what they’re capable of. Throughout the book, they are confronted with lovingly imperfect characters, surprising and hilarious twists, and an emotional complexity too often missing in the world of children’s literature.”
