Walter Elias “Walt” Disney (December 5, 1901 – December 15, 1966) was an American film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, animator, entrepreneur, entertainer, international icon, and philanthropist. Disney is famous for his influence in the field of entertainment during the 20th century. As the co-founder (with his brother Roy O. Disney) of Walt Disney Productions, Disney became one of the best-known motion picture producers in the world. The corporation he co-founded, now known as The Walt Disney Company, today has annual revenues of approximately U.S. $35 billion.

Disney is particularly noted for being a film producer and a popular showman, as well as an innovator in animation and theme park design. He and his staff created some of the world's most famous fictional characters including Mickey Mouse, a character for which Disney himself was the original voice. He has been awarded four honorary Academy Awards and has won twenty-two competitive Academy Awards out of fifty-nine nominations, including a record four in one year, giving him more awards and nominations than any other individual. He also won seven Emmy Awards. He is the namesake for Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resort theme parks in the United States, as well as the international resorts Tokyo Disney, Disneyland Paris, and Disneyland Hong Kong.

Disney died of lung cancer in Burbank, California, on December 15, 1966. The following year, construction began on Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. His brother Roy Disney inaugurated the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971.

The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) (commonly referred to as Disney) is the largest media and entertainment conglomerate in the world in terms of revenue. Founded on October 16, 1923, by brothers Walt Disney and Roy Disney as the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, the company was reincorporated as Walt Disney Productions in 1929. Walt Disney Productions established itself as a leader in the American animation industry before diversifying into live-action film production, television, and travel. Taking on its current name in 1986, The Walt Disney Company expanded its existing operations and also started divisions focused upon theatre, radio, publishing, and online media. In addition, it has created new divisions of the company in order to market more mature content than it typically associates with its flagship family-oriented brands.

The company is best known for the products of its film studio, the Walt Disney Motion Pictures Group, today one of the largest and best-known studios in Hollywood. Disney also owns and operates the ABC broadcast television network; cable television networks such as Disney Channel, ESPN, and ABC Family; publishing, merchandising, and theatre divisions; and owns and licenses 11 theme parks around the world. On January 23, 2006, it was announced that Disney would purchase Pixar in an all-stock transaction worth $7.4 billion. The deal was finalized on May 5. On December 31, 2009, Disney Company acquired the Marvel Entertainment, Inc. for $4.24 billion. The company has been a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average since May 6, 1991. An early and well-known cartoon creation of the company, Mickey Mouse, is the official mascot of The Walt Disney Company.

My daughter has been driving me crazy with the two minute youtube videos; she is obsessed with this movie. I always loved little golden books as a kid and was well aware that the story would be a condensed brief summary of the movie. It was less than that. I was pretty disappointed. It was so shortened it didn't even make sense. Sven, the reindeer, was never even mentioned. He was just in the pictures. It talks about Anna being hurt by Elsa's magic as children but that is it. She got hurt and trolls made her better. Later Elsa flees into the mountains so Anna hires a "mountain man" to take her to Elsa. Then Elsa cast a freezing spell on her and she needs true love's kiss. The story is over a page later. If you haven't seen the movie this will make zero sense. Since I had seen the movie I could follow. My daughter is three and just loved that it was a new way to see Anna and Elsa. Overall, not upset I made the purchase but I had higher expectations.

A LOVELY EDITION FOR BOTH FROZEN AND GOLDEN BOOK LOVERS

Who doesn't love a Golden Book? FROZEN is no exception to the Golden Rule...it's an adorable, youth-friendly representation of the story of Frozen. The key points of the story are covered adequately. For older children who prefer a more detailed story, the Frozen Special Edition Junior Novelization makes a perfect next step up from the Golden Book. The Golden Book includes lovely illustrations and decorative pages (stars, sparkles, Golden magic!) which make this book a treat for all children. It is a lovely addition to the Golden series, which holds special memories for people of all generations. A nice collector's item for both Frozen and Golden Book lovers.

Frozen is a famous film in this year. There are many elements inside this film. It includes family affections, friendship and love. This film still continue the style of Disney. The beautiful princess dresses, colorful cute cartoon actors.
In the digital book, it is showed slide by slide. Although it dose not show in a film way, the details of this book still show in this book. The back ground music is "Do You Wanna Build a Snowman?". The pronunciation of the story teller is very amazing with the back ground music.

The Little Golden Book's telling of Frozen is a fantastic summation of the movie's plot. With only one minor deviation from the plot of the movie that I noticed, it is faithful to the movie and hits all of the major points of the plot in a condensed but entertaining way, and the artwork is great, as well. I recommend this book to any Frozen fan, even adult ones like myself.

This fiction book is definatly child's favorite. I could not find what age group this was intended for but I am assuming it is recommended for anybody to read. this book talks about two young girls who is an enormous Castle. one of them (Elsa) has a magical power and the other (Anna) is is trying to find out what's going on. online goes on a journey with snowman mountain men and his reindeer to try and save her sister. it's a good story to read it and find out what happened at the end. as we could see what the movie facebook definitely would capture children's attention. the characters from the book are also really were created and that is what gives this book life. I think it would be a great books to have in your classroom and read it during winter time. I decided to give this took a 45 simply because I think Elsa should have sound a love her as well not be lonely, but that probably will coming next.

Frozen Little Golden Book (Disney Frozen)

My daughter love's the movie Frozen and all of the characters, she was even Princess Else for Halloween. It's hard to find book's to hold her interest and I let her pick a couple out now for her review..

She liked the layout of the story, as it was similar to the movie with beautiful color. What either of us didn't like about the book that they could have done a better job, was to either make the print larger or as in some book's you can enlarge the picture to read, which in this case you could do neither.

I would recommend this book, but bring your magnifying glass.

[Morgan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very good, but without the songs and Olaf's humor, it isn't as much fun. Add in a little bit of singing, joking, and commentary to make it more enjoyable! This is such a cheesy review, and I'm happy I'm done. :)

For some reason the most sought-after book during resting time. But I’m never fond of the book versions of movies if the movie comes first. Cool pictures though!

A well written and illustrated book following the tale of two sisters. The princesses were very close. One has magical powers to turn everything to ice and one who doesn't. Following an accident Anna's memories of Elsa's powers are wiped and Elsa begins to loose control of her powers. Her parents encourage her to conceal her powers and the castle gates are shut. The girls, Elsa especially, are locked away and in hopes to protect Anna, Elsa refuses to maintain the strong relationship with Anna. On coronation day, Anna accidently upsets Elsa, after announcing to Elsa her intentions to marry Prince Hans, a stranger she had met that day. In the heat of the argument, Anna pulls off Elsa's glove and in an act to encourage Anna to silence, she shoots her Ice powers, revealing her powers to the people of Arendelle. She runs to the North mountain where her powers can be let loose, starting an eternal winter in Arendelle. Anna leaves prince Hans in charge and chases after her sister to get her to reverse the winter storm. Anna makes her way to a small shop up the mountains, where she meets Kristoff, a young man with a reindeer Sven. They agree to take her up the mountain to find her sister after she buys them supplies. The crew start their journey where they meet a little snowman called Olaf. He takes the group to Elsa's ice palace. Anna and Elsa come face to face again where they discuss the eternal winter. Elsa gets extremely upset that she hasn't kept everyone safe and accidently strikes Anna in the heart with her ice powers. Kristoff takes Anna to his magical friend trolls, who tell her she needs an act of true love to save her.
Hans eventually starts to get worried after the return of Anna's horse, and goes to look for her. He brings Queen Elsa home as a prisoner.
When he returns he finds Anna back at the palace, dying of a frozen heart, he goes to kiss her but...turns and puts out the fire keeping Anna warm. He never loved Anna and only wanted to be closer to running his own kingdom. Anna then realises that Kristoff is her true love and she is rescues by Olaf who attempts to reunite the pair. When Anna is close to greeting Kristoff, she realises Hans is about to hurt Elsa, so she runs infront of him and smashes the sword as she freezes over. Elsa hugs her sister and weeps, this act of true love helps to melt Anna and they all live happily ever after.

I am obviously not the intended audience. The intended audience is someone who saw the movie, many times. And probably is under 7.

This book made little sense. It was condensed so far that I couldn’t make out what the story was about. It also was written in a style that seemed to be translated to English from another language which was translated from another language. It read like disjointed plot points jumping from one scene to the next with little prose that gave it any emotion or coherence. Has the author ever read a book?

I know I am not the intended audience but I can’t understand how so many reviews are good for this book. Is it just because their children, who saw the movie 50 times, loved it? Therefore the pictures were enough? The pictures were beautiful.

For someone who didn’t know the story, I still don’t. This was one of the worst children’s books I have read. I admit, I haven’t read many lately. This book made no sense. How could Disney release something so inferior? I guess it can when so many people are satisfied with it. I imagine all these girls that loved this book as a child, picking up the book in their teens and squealing how they loved this. Then reading through it with a puzzled look on their faces and saying, “what the heck is this?”

"Disney Frozen" by Walt Disney Company is a captivating hardcover book that transports readers to the enchanting world of Arendelle. The story follows the fearless Anna as she embarks on a perilous journey to find her sister, Elsa, whose icy powers have trapped their kingdom in eternal winter. Along the way, Anna joins forces with rugged mountain man Kristoff, his loyal reindeer Sven, and a comical snowman named Olaf. Together, they face various challenges, proving the power of love and sisterhood. This beautifully illustrated book captures the essence of the beloved movie, making it a delightful read for fans of all ages. The narrative is engaging, filled with adventure and heartwarming moments, making it an inspiring tale for young readers.

This classic childhood story is one of those I didn’t remember in much detail. The movie was never among my favorites growing up, but the book completely won me over. It has such a charming writing style, paired with a beautifully chosen message that truly melted my heart.

The book left me with a wistful, nostalgic feeling, transporting me back to childhood when Disney stories were my favorite little treat of the day. I can’t wait to explore the literary universe of the other stories in this collection.

[Kelly Wickham · Rating 3 out of 5]

These books are just made to sell, but A Little Golden Book always makes a pretty and interesting book. Of course, the storyline is greatly reduced, but the pictures are really well done and kids enjoy these books. It is not a book that I would generally keep for posterity but it is a A Little Golden Book so that makes it worthy to sit on my shelf and possibly be read to future grandchildren.

[Shaumbra Papritz · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book's saving grace is the lovely illustrations. The wording was awkward in many places and felt rushed... like someone quickly slapped it together to make a even quicker profit. But man, the illustrations are gorgeous!

[Arely Cortes · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was a okay book. I think I would have enjoyed it more when I was younger, but right now it wasn't the best book. There were nice pictures on each page with good detail. It tells what happens in the movie just shorter.
