  • {PDF EPUB} Gakky Two-Feet by Micky Dolenz Children's Bookshelf Talks with Micky Dolenz
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Gakky Two-Feet by Micky Dolenz Children's Bookshelf Talks with Micky Dolenz. Micky Dolenz was sitting in his Broadway dressing room recently, preparing for another performance as Zoser in the Elton John-Tim Rice production of Aida, when he realized he'd passed a milestone: his run with Aida had surpassed his tenure with The Monkees, the '60s pop culture phenomenon that started out as a TV show about a band and became a band without a TV show. Dolenz, 61, is ready to be known for something else. His first picture book, Gakky Two-Feet , illustrated by David Clark, debuts from Putnam. He envisions a whole series of books about on "anthromythology," the fictionalization of key moments in human evolution. Interviewed from his home in Los Angeles, Dolenz explained that his fascination with the subject had nothing to do with having once been a Monkee himself. Can you explain how Gakky Two-Feet came about? Ever since I was a kid, I've had an enormous interest in the sciences—everything from quantum physics to anthropology. When my Scientific American arrives every month, I read it cover to cover. So the idea for Gakky , about the first quadruped who decided to stand up, came from Scientific American ? It did! I had read an article about hominid evolution and, one night shortly after that, I woke up and the Muse was standing by my bed. She was really cute, and she had a nine-millimeter Glock. She held it at my head and said, 'Write Gakky's story.' Not being one to deny a pretty Muse with a loaded Glock, I got up.
