      Hey Aaron, My 7/yo daughter happened to catch your video and really liked your art style. She bugged me to back your project so that she could get a picture of red panda drawn by you! Red pandas are her favorite animal. They look kind of like raccoons. I pledged through Amazon and didn't see a place to request a particular drawing so I'm doing it here. Also, how do we let you know where to send it? Congrats on blowing away your goal! Looking forward to checking out the book!
