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.

"All of our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them." -- Walt Disney.
This book was so cute! The stories contained inside are much shorter than the films we know and love. But the art! Oh, the beautiful art. If I had kids, I would enjoy reading this to them. But until then, my cats seemed to enjoy listening to me ramble about stories from my childhood, and a couple more recent favorites of mine!
Stories included:
The Lion King
Wreck-it Ralph
The Princess and the Frog
Cinderella
Frozen
Robin Hood
101 Dalmatians
Peter Pan
Mulan
Aladdin
Beauty and the Beast
Lady and the Tramp
Pinocchio
Lilo and Stitch
Sleeping Beauty
Tangled
The Little Mermaid
Snow White

Great mixture of famous classic and modern Disney stories. Book contains shorter versions of stories so it is suitable also for the youngest kids and perfect for bedtime reading. We had it borrowed from library but I think we need to buy our own copy :)

When I was young my mom had this old Disney Storybook Collection and I treasured that book. I loved Disney as a child and this book was magical to me, I loved it. I have seen Disney compilations since then and I thought they were pretty good, but I really liked this one. The Cover art and sliver leafed pages make this book look special. It had all of my children's favorite stories within condensed into an enjoyable short read with my 4 & 5 year old. We really liked this book.

This books was great. I love the Disney storybook collections. I loved that this had a lot of the new ones and some of the old ones. It told the whole movie in each story so a lot of stuff was left out and it was kind of choppy but overall it was a great book and fans of Disney will love it.
