DESCRIPTION:
Ages 8-up.Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Publishers Weekly Mickey graces the cover, but Disney: The Ultimate Visual Guide by Russell Schroeder-a Disney illustrator for nearly three decades-offers much more. Various spreads focus on individual characters as well as eras (e.g., "The War Years" and "The Postwar Years), all accompanied by nostalgic photographs, memorabilia, original sketches and movie stills. Walt's early years in Kansas City, Mo., kick off the proceedings, leading fans all the way to Disney's latest creation, Lilo & Stitch.
Good book for the price snjlowe Good deal. Condensed Century Alan D. Cranford How did the DK staff manage to condense a century of Disney into 124 pages? This is a great coffee table book. It has enough colorful pictures to keep a preschooler occupied, and enough text to satisfy adult fans. I liked the index in the back--makes referencing quick and easy. Well done, Russell Schroeder! Disney television, Disney theme parks, Disney cruises, Disney stage productions, and of course Disney movies and merchandise fill this image-rich book. If you had to purchase each image on postcards, they would be smaller--and cost a whole lot more.. An excellent visual survey Midwest Book Review Disney: The Ultimate Visual Guide will make the perfect family Christmas present for families already interested in Disney's wonders. Disney has touched lives for decades: Disney: The Ultimate Visual Guide provides an excellent visual survey of the extent of the animated creator's works and the logical progression of Disney talents and creations. A fine oversized picture book the entire family will enjoy.
Building on the success of such titles as Toy Story: The Essential Guide and Dinosaur: The Essential Guide, the DK creative team has been given unlimited access to Disney's considerable archives to chart the development of the Disney Company, from its early days in the 1920s to the present. Disney: The Ultimate Guide includes a wealth of images -- from specially photographed memorabilia to familiar scenes from favorite Disney moments -- to create a visual experience of the number one name in family entertainment. Disney's most-loved films are the focus of this charming collectible, but all facets of Disney's universe are represented in this wonderful volume.
