Sweet Charity
All Cities
November 09, 2009

Teaching kids to share is like walking through a “mine, mine, mine” field.

Before you explode, show them how to spread the wealth with a contribution to Awesome World Foundation.

Writer/artist Dallas Clayton formed the children’s literacy charity after touring the country with An Awesome Book, his inspiring call to imagination, filled with Technicolor illustrations of creatures like rocket-powered unicorns and musical baboons.

You can help. Buy the book; for each copy sold, one is donated to a place where kids need a boost (a foster home, hospital, camp, inner-city school).

It’s the bomb.
