The Little Red Racing Car

Joe Lopez — Sat, 16 Feb 2013 02:43:03 +0000

Dwight Knowlton looked for the perfect Father/Son (Daughter) car book once his son was born. Unable to find a suitable option, he set out to make his own. The Little Red Racing Car is a picture book story of a 1955 Maserati 300S, discovered in a barn by a son and rebuilt with his father.

Dwight has competed much of the work already. Most of the art work is compete with the final illustrations yet to come. During the month of February 2013, this project is featured on Kickstarter, a funding platform for creative projects.

The goal is $25,000 by February 28th. Did we mention this project will also benefit the Phoenix Children’s Hospital?
