I am Walt Disney

Perfect and age appropriate illustration of biographies

My daughters 5, 9, & 10 all love this series. (Though it bugs them that the person profiled is drawn as a child throughout the entire story, even when talking about their adult life!) They found Walt Disney’s story to be quite interesting and kept pestering me with fun facts from it.

Good series for introducing kids to people who they should be able to recognize later in life

Para adultos é um livro bobinho apesar de lindo e muito bem feito. Qualquer colecionador e amante da Disney pode comprar sem medo. Caso você queira usar para ensinar uma criança, em inglês, sobre o Walt Disney, tanto esse quantos os outros livros da série (sobre outras personalidades) é perfeito.

These fairly thin and short booklets are not cheap. BUT.. they are really, really nice!. And of very good quality. This unusual children’s book narrative about a very famous character that we all know is super attractively illustrated. The storyline is clear, interesting and well-told in with comic-book text prints. Yet in such a manner that children can relate to the main character while they learn about the era that Walt grew up in as well. The colourful hard covered booklet is simply presented in an excellent manner. And makes a brilliant present. Our daughter is a little older than the target audience at 9 years of age already into more serious literature. However she already has a few other books in this range and she adores each of these books. She has also been reading them to her younger brother - who is more interested in the colours and pictures than in Walt Disney himself. The range of topics in this series can’t be praised enough. The good thing is that they address famous historical characters other than the usual megalomical white conquerors that we learned about at school. Our children will be treated on more of these books. The only thing is that the amount and choice of books in the series is decent but not that extensive yet. Curious to see where the next books will take us.

My granddaughter and I really found this biography about Walt Disney to be very interesting. The biography is well written and the illustrations are very good too. Any child who loves Disneyland, Disney World, and Disney movies, will find this book to be extremely entertaining. I think this includes most children. Who doesn’t want to learn about Walt Disney? I highly recommend this biography for 5 to 8 year old children.
