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.

I truly despise reading this type of book. But, every time I take my 4 year-old, princess-obsessed little girl to the library with me, we end up coming home with a stack-full of these fluffy Disney princess books. I will not discourage reading - so I enthusiastically read them all.

A lovely book of two Disney princess stories. Both stories are very sweet but I especially love the Cinderella one. It’s magical and heartwarming. Cinderella’s character always teaches great lessons of perseverance and positivity. My daughter loves that this book can be flipped upside down and transformed into another book! Perfect book to add to your little girl’s collection.

We snagged this book at the library. Whenever we see Disney books, we have to grab them. Belle and Cinderella are two of my daughter's favorite princesses, so she was especially excited about this book.
The stories were sweet and fun, but someone had ripped out the pages in the middle, so we unfortunately don't know how either story ended. I understand that someone didn't want to be charged for ruining the book, but it's not fair to other patrons - especially other KIDS since this is a kids book - to miss a big portion of the story because you didn't want to accept consequences for your actions. I will now point it out the librarians and hopefully they believe ME that it wasn't us. Really crummy of someone.
My daughter would have really enjoyed these stories if we could have finished them. I had to tell her that someone else was careless and didn't think about others so we don't get to know the ending. She didn't really understand.
Hopefully we can find a different version of this story so that we can see what happens to the end of Cinderella's and Belle's stories.

My daughter likes this book very much. She loves "pretty dresses" and so this book is a great one for her. We are planning a trip to Disney World later this summer and so this is helping her love the princesses. That said the stories are a little lame. Not as fun to read as some others.

The book has a story featuring Cinderella before the well known story where she meets her prince. Her stepmother and stepsisters are out, and she is daydreaming while cleaning the house. The other story is with Belle, beautiful dresses, a kind Beast and a little book. The books contains stickers.

I'm not suggesting this book is a fantastic Caldecott type read and is going to whip through the reading world, but it is much better written than other books of its type. In fact, it is just plain well-written.

This book has two Disney stories combined in one book. This book has two great fairy tales and it could be used to teach children about the fairy tale genre.

I loved that there were two books in one.
