There is currently a Kickstarter campaign attempting to raise funds for a Royals-themed children's book called George and the Pine Tar.
Check it out:
So, that's adorable and you should definitely support it. Actually, the Glass family should just complete Steve Bennaka's goal since they could probably find that much money in their couch -- and they could write it off as a donation! That's obviously not going to happen, so donate to Bennaka's Kickstarter so your kid can have fun reading about the Royals during the only part of life that really matters.
Anyway, Royals Review put a call to Twitter to cry havoc and let slip the dogs of social media sarcasm.
