The Story of Walt Disney

“The Story of Walt Disney emphasizes that the road toward greatness takes hard work and support from others. It wasn’t always easy, but Walt and his brother, Ron, found a way together. All of Disney’s success is due to hard work and perseverance. This biography is perfect for young ones’ introduction into nonfiction. It’s geared toward 6- to 9-year-olds but appropriate for any age. I especially loved how the “jump in the think tank” prompts young readers to apply what they learned to their own lives. The illustrations are charming and nostalgic. This book would be a wonderful addition to any home or classroom library.” –Lisa Borny, Bookstagrammer, mother of two, and avid reader“As someone from LA, I thought I knew all about Walt Disney. This biography introduces young readers, like my son, to unknown fun facts about Walt’s life and legacy. Disney fans will love this book.” –Karen Ehrhardt, children’s book author and former children’s librarian“I received The Story of Walt Disney and read it to my daughter right away. It was such a great experience for both of us as Disney lovers! It was fun, engaging, creative, and so visually pleasing!” –Paula Gottlieb Lynn, nurse, mother, and Disney fan“This is an easy-to-understand biography for young readers to learn new facts about Walt Disney. The book contains clear chapters, along with Think Tank questions, timelines, and maps. An added quiz at the end of the book aids the young readers’ comprehension. This is a book I would recommend be used in elementary school classrooms.” –Laura Sandmark, retired reading consultant and elementary teacher
