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.

Winnie de Poeh en de honingboom is een boek op basis van Disney´s mooiste verhalen. En op de verhalen van A.A. Milne.
Winnie de Poeh heeft er alles voor over om wat kleverige honing te pakken te krijgen. Als hij vermomd als een...
Dit boek is leuk op geschenk te geven aan een kind. Kinderen van alle leeftijden zullen genieten van dit prachtige Disney-avontuur, om naar te luisteren of zelf te lezen.
Ik heb hem dan ook doorgegeven aan het kinderzwerfboek.
A fun story about Winnie the Pooh! When I was younger, I watched and read stories about Winnie the Pooh and enjoyed them very much. Because my mother loved Winnie the Pooh, it rubbed off on me as well. Re-reading this book now is sweet because it reminds me of my childhood, but it doesn't necessarily have any deeper message. I rated this 4 stars because even though it is a fun read, there is nothing to gain knowledge wise or morally from this book. That being said, I recommend this book especially if you have grown up with Winnie the Pooh and his friends.
Pooh best loves honey Mama. He didnt trick the bees they knew he was.. wait how did they know? He doesn't look like a rain cloud he looks like a bear. I think I love Pooh Bear and his big tummy -Khi 3
"I am a little black rain cloud!" A faithful book version of the movie version...of the book? That seems trippy. But a cute story of Pooh trying to get honey.
This goes through Pooh trying to get honey from the bees, getting stuck in Rabbit's door after lunch, and what happens. If you love the Disney movie you will probably like this book.
This brief retelling of 'Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree' is a good before bedtime tale even though a few details keep it from being as authentic to the short film as it could be, but that is a personal stance. The book is still a delightful short revisit to the film that introduced me to the beloved residents of the Hundred-Acre Wood.
Winnie tiene hambre y nada mejor que la miel para saciarla. Después de acabar la suya e intentar conseguir la que hay en la colmena del árbol, acabará en la despensa de conejo donde se quedará atascado después de un atracón.
Ik vond het grappig dat Poeh in die boom met honing gevallen was, maar wanneer Janneman Robinson laat weten dat hij hem kwam redden, zegt Poeh dat hij geen haast heeft. Want hij wil bij de honing blijven en heeft al een pootje vol honing...
Je ne connaissais pas vraiment (hormis dans Kingdom Hearts) et je n’ai pas totalement accrochée. L'histoire est plus burlesque qu'autre chose. Un peu déçue par la chute/ fin.
