It was fascinating to see how Disney started and all the drawing and history of some of the most popular Disney cartoon at the time and the beginning.

A good primer for anyone who's interested in learning more about Disney history (movies and theme parks).

As a Disney fan, I really enjoyed this book. It covered a little bit of everything Disney related (aside from a few major oversights like Marvel and Hollywood Studios) and I was able to learn quite a bit about Disney history and trivia. Lots of beautiful pieces of art, illustrations, and great photos. Highly recommend for the Disney fan! While it certainly isn't the most in-depth book (I'd buy another if I was interested in a specific Disney topic), it's a stunning coffee table book with lots of great info.

Beautiful illustrations, great information I never heard or read before. I really enjoyed it, and in fact, this book inspired me to watch some old Disney-movies that I have missed, and secretly I already finished two☺️

Of course I loved it it's a book about Disney! The only reasons why it's not a 5 stars is the way the book is written. I don't really understand the order, at the beginning it was chronological but near the middle the author didn't talked about every movies (and I hoped he did) and the order was not logical... it was bothering me.

I have to say that I didn't learned much so if you are a huge Disney fan and know basically everything maybe skip this one.

A must-read for any Disney fan, this book is packed with interesting information and tons of pictures, plus it's up to date through 2015.

As a huge disney fan, I loved this. The pictures were beautiful, and even though I've read tons of Disney history books before, I still learned new information. Going on my wishlist for a future date.

And now, all I want to do is re-watch old Disney movies, or finally watch some of the older live-action ones I never saw before..
