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.

Summary:
This book is a picture book with labels of the object it is naming. When you turn the page it describes a specific category with objects and names that fit it. It goes through food, numbers, musical instruments, nature, toys and games, transportation, clothes, underwater friends, wild animals, house, shapes and colors. This is a great book to teach children all of those listed above and helps describe what group it fits in. The only thing I didn't like is the book has no blank spaces it is full of color on each page which can be way to stimulating for children. Words are all over the page and there is no correct way to read it. The pictures are clear and you can obviously tell which word they mean. The groups of words they should learn are diverse and gives the children more to learn than just everyday objects the child has seen or normally sees. The book is hard so it is durable and easy for children to turn the pages.

Natalie fell asleep while I was at Walmart, so I read a bunch of books in the toy department so I wouldn't disturb her nap. I liked this less than the other first words book I read recently. This one did not have photographs like the other did and it had other illustrations that could get in the way of focusing on the picture and word connection. But really, it was again about the word selection. I just found some of the words that made it into the book ridiculous, such as a specific kind of fish in a whole section on underwater animals. I did, however, really like that there was a section on objects around the house.

I like the bright colors and the pictures, but I'm pretty picky about my children's books. I liked the sections on Food and Nature. I was bothered by the "Toys and Games" which featured jacks, marbles and checkers - all choking hazards not appropriate for the 9mos target age. I'd prefer they feature toys that he can actually point to from his bin. I also didn't like that for the colors they put a blue kayak and a black umbrella - as if those items are never any other color. Couldn't they have used a bluebird, jeans, coal, or a black cat? It's a nice enough book, but not our "go to" book for words.

A great picture book that I share and use with my niece and she enjoys looking at daily several times a day. A recommended teaching picture book for children and parents.

My toddler's favorite book! He's especially keen on the pages with animals and food items. :)

I find the mixture of real and cartoon a bit odd, but this was my daughter's favorite book for a really long time. It was very instrumental in her learning lots of words, shapes, etc.
