Disney High School Musical: Stories From East High #9: Ringin' It In (High School Musical Stories from East High)
The Wildcats are ready to ring in the New Year in style! The gang is going to the ski resort where Troy and Gabriella first met for a winter break vacation. Soon everybody is doing their own thing. Troy is busy giving Chad snowboarding lessons. Gabriella is hard at work planning a romantic celebration. And of course Sharpay tries to outshine everyone at everything--skiing, ice skating, even karaoke! But she realizes that she misses her brother who had to stay at home. Can all the Wildcats come together to make it the best New Year's ever?
Customer Review: Mediocre at Best
Ever wondered what happened the New Years' during Troy and Gabriella's senior year? No? I never did either. This story is about as basic as any HSM book gets: Sharpay schemes, Troy and Gabriella wonder at their relationship, Chad is afraid of performing, Martha is non-existant, Ryan crushes on a new girl. If you've read the others, you've read this one. In this outing, the Wildcats all go back to the lodge where Troy and Gabriella first met to celebrate the new year. If you have the rest of the series, you might as well pick it up; otherwise, go with the Super Special "Under The Stars".


Walt Disney's Donald and Daisy (Gladstone Comic Album Series No. 12)
Customer Review: Very Enjoyable; Daisy as "Second Banana"
This is not what you call a Strong side of Daisy, so don't buy this if you expect to see Daisy as a strong Character, as she is in QUACK PACK. Don't get me wrong, these five stories are very enjoyable, they are , however, vehicles for Donald, Gladstone Gander, and Donald in one of his many "Master's of ..." roles, and in this case, he is a Master of the work in a Beauty Salon. The Editorial piece at the start of the Comic will tell you all you need to know about this collection. If you want Daisy as a Strong force, it's really only in the 70's that Daisy starts to become a Force unto herself, and also in the British DISNEY productions. Also, the animated works show Daisy as a Strong character, but it is still as a foil for Donald, and other Forces in the Duck Universe. But, I definitely enjoyed this collection, since it highlights Barks again, if if one of the pieces is not written by Barks, but his craft brings enjoyment to all things Duck-ish, and its well worth the money to buy.
