Created by Michele Goren, Knolly Nibbles is a lovable mouse with no tail and a big heart.<br />
Her message is to teach kids that being different is not just OK—it’s normal. Created eight years<br />
ago, Knolly Nibbles soon grew into an icon within the Goren family and eventually captured the hearts<br />
of some key industry animators with backgrounds at Dreamworks and Disney. After unsuccessfully<br />
attempting to launch the property on her own, Goren discovered the crowdfunding website <strong>Toy</strong>-<br />
Backer.com and launched a crowdfunding campaign to get initial product capital raised and get<br />
awareness of the IP. DGL <strong>Toy</strong>s noticed Knolly Nibbles, took it on as a new IP, and has now signed<br />
Knolly Nibbles for a full line of comprehensive toys, including electronic plush, remote-control toys, and<br />
impulse price point goods.<br />
