Walt Disney's Classic Storybook (Disney Storybook Collections)


Walt Disney's Classic Storybook (Disney Storybook Collections)
Featuring gorgeous vintage artwork from the 1950s and 1960s, Walt Disney's Classic Storybook pays homage to the storybooks of yesteryear. We've taken eighteen of Disney's classic stories -- including Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and Dumbo -- and paired them with the stunning and detailed art that was published with these stories decades ago. Parents will recognize this artwork from the beloved Disney storybooks of their youth, and will delight in sharing these timeless treasures with their own children.
Customer Review: Shame this was discontinued
It's a shame this volume was discontinued--there are some good stories here and it is an excellent value. The illustrations are very nice. The writing is OK, but nothing special. It tends to be rather bland--somewhat more than a condensed description of what happened in a cartoon--but it does the job. The stories themselves are obviously appealing to kids, and our little boy liked most but not all of these stories. He particularly enjoyed some that you might not expect, like "Bootle Beetle's Adventure" and "The Old Mill." You can see video versions of these on YouTube, by the way.
Customer Review: Bedtime Reading
This is great for bedtime reading, as lots of stories and you can read a few everynight, over and over again.
