"Due to the positive response and requests from Zia's friends and classmates,Ken,Igi,Stephen and I chatted about how to turn this idea into something where kids everywhere could have fun with hands-on drawing and coloring,and then see their imaginative artwork come to life in wearable fashion form,"Newberry explained.
In addition to kid-sized dresses,"Picture This"also allows kids to design dresses for their dolls.And although the service currently only offers dresses,they have plans to expand the clothing choices.
For now,Newberry invites families to try out the service and post photos of their dresses on social media.Based on he various kinds of kid art in the world,it's clear these dresses will certainly be unique.

4.Thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign,Dion Leonard,an extreme marathon runner is adopting a stray pup(流浪狗)he met while running a 155-mile race in the Gobi desert in China.The funds(基金)that were raised will help cover medical expenses so that the dog can be transported from China to Leonard's home of Edinburgh,Scotland.
The female dog,who Leonard appropriately named Gobi,joined Leonard on day two of the annual 4 Deserts Race Series and ran side-by-side with him for 77 miles.Leonard noticed Gobi running with 101 runners during the first day,but on the second day,Gobi was on the start line,looking up at him."This was the first contact I had with her and as I ran off the line I noticed her by my side,"he said."I didn't speak much to her that day,but at the finish line she followed me into the tent and we slept next to each other.That was it then."
Leonard shared his sleeping space,water and food with his small companion during the race.He even lent her a hand when needed."I carried her across rivers that she could not cross on her own,"he wrote on his Crowdfunder page.
After the race,it was clear to Leonard that he had developed a special bond with the pup and started researching ways to get Gobi to the UK.He learned that it would take four months for Gobi to be medically checked and cleared for entry,all of which will cost 6,560 USD,an amountthathasbeensurpassed(超過)duetoasuccessfulCrowdfunder campaignthatraised 13,330 USD.
