Seven-Year-Old Natalie McGriff Wins $16K Crowdfunding Award
Here's some good news to start the week: The magazine Good recently reported on a new comic called The Adventures of Moxie Girl, by seven-year-old Natalie McGriff and her mother Angela Nixon, which was the winner of a $16,000 award at the One Spark Crowdfunding Festival earlier this year.
Moxie Girl is an African-American girl who hates her hair, and thinks it's ugly --- until she finds a magical shampoo that gives her superpowers and helps her in the fight against crime and illiteracy. As her local library is surrounded by The Council of Monsters, Moxie Girl heads off to save the day!
