Welcome to the Crowdsourcing Mornings segment! Every weekday morning, Geek Alabama talks about and features one crowdsourcing project from crowdsourcing sites such as, Indiegogo, and others. The hope with Crowdsourcing Mornings is to feature and help a project be successful and reach its fundraising goal. Please enjoy today’s featured project!

Every family has a moment just before the feelings take over. A child shuts down. A parent gets frustrated. The room gets louder, or quieter, or smaller. Everyone is trying to say something, but no one feels heard.
It follows Lilly, a little girl with feelings too big for words and a father who wrestles with feelings of his own. Then a small talking frog appears and takes the most important step of all. He listens.
This is not a book where every feeling is neatly solved. Lilly’s frustration is real. Her father’s weariness is real. The misunderstanding between them is real. Tog simply gives them a way to stop long enough to find each other again.
Family life isn’t always gentle. Children have big feelings. Parents do too. We just wear them differently. Sometimes we need a little help remembering not to explain, correct, or hurry someone along through what they feel. Sometimes the most loving thing we can do is find the humility to get low and listen.
