Read about the incredible life of Walt Disney in this addition to the #1 New York Times best-selling Who Was? series. Walt Disney always loved to entertain people. Often it got him into trouble. Once he painted pictures with tar on the side of his family's white house. His family was poor, and the happiest time of his childhood was spent living on a farm in Missouri. His affection for small-town life is reflected in Disneyland Main Streets around the world. With black-and-white illustrations throughout, this biography reveals the man behind the magic. This book is not authorized, licensed or endorsed by the Walt Disney Company or any affiliate. Review: Great Biography - My daughter used this book for the biography she had to read in 2nd grade. It is a great book. There are pictures on most pages so it helps keep attention of young readers. It was easy to read and very informative. We've watched lots of Disney movies and visited Disney parks, so it felt relevant to her. And, gave her some good background information. Review: Lincoln - I chose 5 stars because this book is so full of action and excitement. Walt Disney is such a great book.

Great book- great man!
We gave this book as a gift and it was a big hit! She said she lived the book! I think we will be buying more of these to give as gifts. We really like giving educational gifts and this was a big hit. It is an easy read and very informative. I would recommend this book. It is a great read for any age. I am going to check out other books from this author because I really thought it is very well written. This book had so many wonderful facts that our young I've wasn't aware if before she read the book. Now she can tell us all about Walt Disney. Maybe we should plan a trip to Disney World soon! I love Disney and these facts are true and a fun read. This book is a keeper. I think keeping this book in our home library is a must. I feel all of the kids will enjoy this one. Boys and girls a like will get so much out if this book. The kids all know a Disney movie so I am glad they got a chance to know the man who made the movies happen through this book. It is one that is hard to put down.

Perfect for a 3rd Grade Biography Book Report
I have been looking for a book series to inspire my 3rd grader grandson to want to read more and when he needed to do a biography book report for school I stumbled upon this book about Walt Disney since he loves Disneyland. I watched his eyes light up with recognition when reading about things he could actually relate to - Walt loved trains - so that was why there are trains at the park, etc. He loved reading about how Mickey Mouse came to be and why he is called Mickey and not Mortimer! It was just the right difficulty level for him - not too basic but didn't overwhelm him. We have already ordered the Jim Henson book and plan to work our way through many of the books over the summer.

Billig in Preis aber auch Inhalt
Sicherlich erhält der Leser einige Informationen über Walt Disney, aber schon vom Umfang des Buches ist das naturgemäß sehr begrenzt. Die Schrift ist groß und der Inhalt leicht, die Zeilenabstände sind für ein Buch außergewöhnlich groß, Fotos gibt es keine, dafür mäßige Zeichnungen, einige meist historische Ereignisse werden parallel zur Entwicklung in Disneys Leben gegenüber gestellt, am Ende des Buches erfolgt eine kurze Übersicht der für Disney bedeutenden Jahre. Nach einer halben Stunde hatte ich das Buch durchgelesen (das Englisch ist recht leicht). Bei dem günstigen Preis für das Buch darf vermutlich auch nicht mehr erwartet werden...

A book which will inspire every child to dream and achieve Great things in Life. It will help them understand Life is about ups and down and one should not get discouraged but move on with renewed strength and confidence.
