Save the first Spot the Frog book: a digital reclamation project.

Frogs are endangered. Not just in ponds, but in bookstores. The first Spot the Frog collection will soon be out of print, and I'd like to save the strips before they expire in a discount bin.

But I need your help.

I'm planning to give the book a new life online, safe from predators and voracious competition (Mutts looks sweet, but on the inside it's all fang and claw, guarding its shelf-space like a tiger with cubs), as a full-color daily email to subscribers.

I've set a goal of $1000 to finance the project. If you'd like to help, please make a pledge of $10 or more at my Fundable site.

For a pledge of $10, I'll send you the colored strips, one day at a time, to your email box, along with wallpaper for your desktop. For $20, I'll include a Spot the Frog mug, suitable for trapping crawling bugs when your frog isn't around. A $100 pledge gets you the mug, and a signed Spot sketch. And if you're feeling expansive, a $200 pledge will get you the aforementioned, along with your choice of an original Spot the Frog daily.

If we don't reach the $1000 goal, you owe nothing, your credit card isn't charged, and I'll spend more quality time with Willy,  my office poddle.
