Long story – much shortened….
MOTH and I were watching and listening to a few Frank Zappa albums and dvds in the past weeks, and pottering around the www, I stumbled across the websites of the Zappa children, once famous for their unusual names, but now all enjoying successes in various fields.
Moon Unit is a writer and artist. Some great work!
Dweezil in the music industry both in his own right with the Zappa Plays Zappa tour.
Ahmet has written a book aimed at enabling children to overcome fears called The Monstrous Memoirs of a Mighty McFearless. You can hear some of the book being read on the book myspace (link on the website), sounds VERY cool and you can buy your very own copy here. I am going to pick up a copy for my monster loving LHM!
And last but not least, (yes it is getting to the crafty bit) Diva is a artist/designer/knitter of reknown!!! Her designs are ‘wearable art’ and Diva’s design company, Hand Made Beauty donates a percentage of all sales to the Watoto Fund – you can help knit kindness throughout the world by supporting knitting activism – find out more here…. Her website is currently being updated but I am looking forward to seeing what is on offer!
Very cool. I must get a copy of that book for my daughter Annie. She is only 4 and may not get it just yet but I’m willing to try anything to stop her Cookie Monster nightmares.
