Walter Elias “Walt” Disney (December 5, 1901 – December 15, 1966) was an American film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, animator, entrepreneur, entertainer, international icon, and philanthropist. Disney is famous for his influence in the field of entertainment during the 20th century. As the co-founder (with his brother Roy O. Disney) of Walt Disney Productions, Disney became one of the best-known motion picture producers in the world. The corporation he co-founded, now known as The Walt Disney Company, today has annual revenues of approximately U.S. $35 billion.
Disney is particularly noted for being a film producer and a popular showman, as well as an innovator in animation and theme park design. He and his staff created some of the world's most famous fictional characters including Mickey Mouse, a character for which Disney himself was the original voice. He has been awarded four honorary Academy Awards and has won twenty-two competitive Academy Awards out of fifty-nine nominations, including a record four in one year, giving him more awards and nominations than any other individual. He also won seven Emmy Awards. He is the namesake for Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resort theme parks in the United States, as well as the international resorts Tokyo Disney, Disneyland Paris, and Disneyland Hong Kong.
Disney died of lung cancer in Burbank, California, on December 15, 1966. The following year, construction began on Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. His brother Roy Disney inaugurated the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971.
The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) (commonly referred to as Disney) is the largest media and entertainment conglomerate in the world in terms of revenue. Founded on October 16, 1923, by brothers Walt Disney and Roy Disney as the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, the company was reincorporated as Walt Disney Productions in 1929. Walt Disney Productions established itself as a leader in the American animation industry before diversifying into live-action film production, television, and travel. Taking on its current name in 1986, The Walt Disney Company expanded its existing operations and also started divisions focused upon theatre, radio, publishing, and online media. In addition, it has created new divisions of the company in order to market more mature content than it typically associates with its flagship family-oriented brands.
The company is best known for the products of its film studio, the Walt Disney Motion Pictures Group, today one of the largest and best-known studios in Hollywood. Disney also owns and operates the ABC broadcast television network; cable television networks such as Disney Channel, ESPN, and ABC Family; publishing, merchandising, and theatre divisions; and owns and licenses 11 theme parks around the world. On January 23, 2006, it was announced that Disney would purchase Pixar in an all-stock transaction worth $7.4 billion. The deal was finalized on May 5. On December 31, 2009, Disney Company acquired the Marvel Entertainment, Inc. for $4.24 billion. The company has been a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average since May 6, 1991. An early and well-known cartoon creation of the company, Mickey Mouse, is the official mascot of The Walt Disney Company.
1: A recap of Frozen. I like how some of the best quotes were included, but I did find myself skipping ahead.
2: Seems like fun, and at least they didn't really cause problems.
3: I felt a little sorry for Anna and Elsa. It is great to see Olaf so excited, but I hate that much heat and could understand their desire for the cold. Loved the ending.
4: Cute. Poor Anna trying so hard to be perfect on her birthday, but her parents were pretty great in making sure she didn't feel bad for messing up. I only wish that there hadn't been so much emphasis on the real birthday party not including grown-ups. Would have been nice to see the parents interacting with her having fun. I guess many parents don't though...
5: She took care of things when they mattered. I'm not surprised she didn't want to be a show-0ff.
6: Nice story and good message about friendship and family.
7: A recap of Frozen Fever. Well-written and enjoyable.
8: A fun and nice story full of positive feels.
9: I loved how the ending. Sometimes, multiple people have different ideas about doing something, and when combined, they turn from good to great.
10: Nice to read about Kristoff as a child. Seems like his troll family was a wonderful family.
11: That sounds gorgeous! A very unexpected invention, I'm sure.
12: Wonderful! I had a feeling that Anna would end up surprising Elsa. If only everyone was so good about giving what people want instead of what they should have.
13: A new friend for Sven. Pretty fun story. Interesting how the winter gear came in handy in the middle of Summer.
14: Why would anyone think Marshmallow is a monster? Don't they know Elsa's powers better by now?
15: Walk a mile in the other person's shoes. I think Anna made a great leader, but who would want that much responsibility?
16: Ah, good intentions working out.
17: Poor Anna again. I am glad that everyone was able to see the silver lining, and maybe Olaf was right: why should we be disappointed when it rains? It brings you closer together!
18: Oh, naiive Olaf! Good thing Marshmellow knew how to wear the little Snowgies out!
(CONTENT WARNING! While this book is for children, my review is DEFINITELY NOT. This is for the pure purpose of making other caretakers that have to read this 1,000 times laugh. You've been warned. 😆)
From the company that brought you the tale of two bad ass sisters saving the world, brandishing pantsuits, sacrificing their lives for each other, empowered from within and not in need of external validation from men; comes a collection of stories so superficial and antiquated you'll feel as if you've been transported in time (but not in the fun "what if I accidentally seduce my mom away from my Dad" way, more in the "stay home brushing your hair and waiting for a man to arrive so your life can begin" way.)
While the collection is bookended with retellings of the first and second movies, the middle is filled with such absolute f-ing nonsense the only logical explanation is that it was AI generated using the words "pink tax" and "barefoot and pregnant". Several entire stories are about sleepovers/parties extensively discussing snacks and face masks that would make even the laziest feminist weep. Other stories include: • A man creating an invention for a competition. His rivals are two women whose inventions are regarded as garbage compared to his chunk of frozen water that 'captures light.' "Everyone agreed that Oaken had the best invention cause females ain't shit. Take your hand sewn earmuff sweater sets and violin compositions and shove them up your menstruation holes, you inferior beings." • Parade planning which involved 50% deciding what to wear and a horse called Lady Crystalbrook Shinytoes. • Adventures ONLY if a male character was in the story. Kristoff is taking back his power after being emasculatingly lost in the woods without a woman to guide him for an entire movie • Low key, laid back Anna overpacking as if she needs her Manolo Blahniks on the picnic- bitch doesn't care to even brush her hair, but we are supposed to buy that she woke up on picnic day high maintenance? • As if it wasn't problematic enough during ANOTHER redundant party storyline that Elsa "Consulted the household servants" we are supposed to believe the QUEEN OF FORKING ICE WHO CAN CONTROL NATURAL ELEMENTS did so in order to 'focus on decorating'. • Next, we are supposed to buy that Anna, a native Scandinavian with a sister who can make ice playgrounds with her mind was "a terrible ice-skater" ?! Bullforkingshirt. Don't worry, Kristoff sweeps her off her own feet to make her look good #WomenDon'tNeedLegsToBeDesirableDoTheyAriel • And finally, Anna reads to kids who don't believe her story until Kristoff comes in and mansplains it to them. In conclusion I give this collection 3 trash baskets and and one broken iceskate. 🗑️🗑️🗑️⛸️
This is a great compilation of Frozen stories that include stories from some of our favorite characters: little Elsa and Anna, Bulda the troll, Kristof, Olaf, Marshmallow, Oaken and the Little Brothers snowballs. In total there are 18 stories to keep any Frozen fan busy for a while. There is a lot of content per story so this would probably be more of a book an adult would read to their young one, or for a child who was an advanced reader.
The illustrations in this book are beautiful! The Disney team really does such a good job of re-creating the who cast in their stories. So much color and detail are in every illustration. They really convey the feelings of the story and will not disappoint the reader. This is definitely a Storybook Collection that any Disney fan will want to add to their collection!!
This treasury of short Frozen stories is delightful for any fan. I enjoyed the beautiful illustrations, and many of the stories made me laugh out loud. I could mentally hear the dialogue in the characters' voices, and giggled a lot over how well the writers nailed their personalities and dynamics with each other. The story quality varies, of course, and there are too many similar ones about birthdays, but overall, this is a fantastic story collection that is far above and beyond the usual quality of books marketed based on a movie's popularity.
I liked returning to this world, as I'd enjoyed the movie. The book proved a little jarring though as the stories cycled between the characters as children and the characters as adults several times. I also didn't like finding out the jerkface (duke?) from Weselton still retained his power. He should have been thrown into the sea by the higher ups the moment he got home. Although that probably wouldn't have gone over well in a kid's book.
I absolutely love this book. The artwork is gorgeous and it also extends the first movie with some cute side stories featuring the characters in both the movie and in the shorts. You get to see the childhood memories of Anna, Elsa, Sven and Kristoff. Keep up with how Marshmallow is doing and see new characters as Elsa and Anna travel around. Oakens trading post is also a fun little side story too. I also noticed this had a lot of birthday stories too.
A cute collection of short stories, a few familiar but many new, following Anna and Elsa and the cast of Disney's Frozen. I think the stories are adorable and the narrator is great. I fell in love with the voice of Andrew Eiden through his other narrations and his alternate name Teddy Hamilton, and I would definitely recommend his other works! (Definitely not all for the same audience, lol.)
I think this collection of stories would be great for bedtimes leading up to the holidays. Definitely makes you feel cheery and happy.
Gorgeous storybook art. Stories are lacklustre for the adult reading them, but my youngest son loves them. Definitely recommended for the aged 3-6 Frozen fan.
Entertaining to go through once with the kids, but unless your kids are Frozen superfans probably not something they'd enjoy rereading over and over again.
My daughter and I loved the silly stories in the book. It is just your basic frozen stories told over and over again, but as long as my 6 year old loves it, so do I. lol
