His latest book for children, ''Danger Is Everywhere'', illustrated by Chris Judge has been selected for the UNESCO Dublin, City of Literature Citywide Reading Campaign. 〔http://www.dublincityofliterature.ie/danger-is-everywhere.html 〕 In 2015 it will be published in 10 languages around the world. He regards himself as "a failed jazz musician, scrambling about for something else to do with his life." 〔http://www.yorkpress.co.uk/leisure/comedy/4865933.print/〕 ==Style== O'Doherty is well known for combining his comedic performance with tunes played on his miniature electronic keyboard. O'Doherty describes his own style of comedy in his song "FAQ for the DOD" as "very low energy musical whimsy" – or "VLEMWy," for short. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「David O'Doherty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
