I loved these visual guides as a kid, this one was a little more shallow than the ones I'm used to. Wit the Star Wars guides there were cross sections additional world building behind the scenes information and professional photos of stuff that was only glimpsed in the movies...here it's mostly just repeating stuff you see from watching the movies. Still I love Toy Story so I enjoyed it.
I think these DK Essential Guides are really good they include character profiles and information on the locations of the film, I love Toy Story and really enjoyed re- watching the film and then reading this essential guide as it gives you extra information about the film. A book for a fan of Toy Story.
