An unlikely artist has contributed a sketch for an upcoming book on Mickey Mouse: Michael Jackson. Appearing alongside artwork by Keith Haring, Andy Warhol, Maurice Sendak, and Charles Schulz is an ink drawing of the famed cartoon character--done for the project by Jackson. "He's a giant Mickey fan", says Craig Yoe, a co-author of "The Art of Mickey Mouse", to be published in November by Disney's Hyperion. "[Jackson] carried a sketchbook around until the right moment of inspiration hit him."
