Disneyland Detective: An Independent Guide to Discovering Disney's Legend, Lore, and Magic


Disneyland Detective: An Independent Guide to Discovering Disney's Legend, Lore, and Magic
This enthusiastic investigation of Disneyland's hidden treasures leads both first-time visitors and aficionados through the legendary theme park while pointing out tiny surprises around each turn. Helpfully organized as a reading tour, this guidebook features the whereabouts of many of Disneyland's secrets, including the locations of several "Hidden Mickeys," and original movie props that appear around the park. Also included are original illustrations, trivia, and an exploration of Disneyland's history, which notes the subtle tributes Walt Disney placed throughout the grounds honoring the people who made the park possible. Also included are fascinating facts about Disneyland and American history that will interest teachers and tour guides as well as the 13.9 million guests who visit Disneyland every year.
Customer Review: Great Information
There are websites online that will give you much of the same information in this book. However, the author of this book has gathered it all together, organized the information and put it in a book that you can take right into Disneyland. When we went to Disneyland we brought our book along. It only added to the enjoyment to be able to crack open the book when waiting in line and look at what was around us. Worth the money enjoy.
Customer Review: Loved it!
We took this book w/ us to Disneyland and found it very useful. While there, we took the "Walk in Walt's footsteps" tour and found that it covered a lot of what was in the book. One of the tour guides even commented on what a good book this one is. The only downfall is that we couldn't find many of the Hidden Mickeys. We were told by a cast memeber that Disneyland doesn't have official Hidden Mickeys and that if there is one on one day, it might be gone the next. We still had fun looking for them!
