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.

Overall, I love this book! It has some great songs in it. However, the arrangements of the songs are kind of weird. They start at choruses and even though they will sometimes give you lyrics to the entire song at the end, the piano accompaniment for the whole song is not provided. And another thing, even though the accompaniment is very beautiful, I feel occasionally like it’s something out of an Easy Piano songbook. (This is not true for all of them.) But overall, I really do like this book. I love playing through some of my favorite Disney songs every once in a while!
UPDATE: Also, another good thing about this book is that it has a short history of Walt Disney and the music at the very beginning of the book, which is really interesting and provides great inspiration for when you play/sing these songs!

Love this collection and have finally bought my own copy. The arrangements are lovely and are suitable for intermediate players. It includes all the classics, plus a few other favourites ('Baby Mine', 'Someone's Waiting for You', 'God Help the Outcasts', 'When She Loved Me', etc.). My only criticism is that it's not spiral-bound -- it's a nightmare to keep open.

I love this songbook! And I love Disney movies! And I love their songs! :-)
This book covers the songs from Disney's early movies through Aladdin, I think (the book is downstairs, on my piano, don't want to run there at the moment). There are so many songs I like to play and sing in it, including "So This Is Love" from Cinderella and "Part of Your World" from The Little Mermaid and many more. Definitely one of my favorite songbooks.

The book has a brief history of Walt Disney and the songs in the Disney movies. The book has some songs that I have never herd before, such as Minnie's Yoo-Hoo."
The book has selected songs from movies from "Snow White and the Seven Dwafs" all the way up to The movie Mulan.
And you can't have a song book without the classic's "It's a Small World" and the "Mickey Mouse March." A wonderful book for the person that loves and wants to play the songs in the movies.

Some songs not complete (without intros, outros, etc) and some sheet music uses the pop song version, not the film version. But fairly good for an idea of the song.
